Grocery Blues |
| I went down to the grocery store |
| To get in I had to pay a dime or more |
| I hadn’t yet begun to start |
| When I had to pay the rent |
| On the shopping cart |
| Deedle lee dum, deedle lee dum |
| Deedle lee dum de dum dum |
| Well I let the kids loose on the floor |
| And they ran round for a while or more |
| Till the manager with the broken smile |
| Said it’s a dollar down and a quarter an aisle |
| I was down in the freezer upon my knees |
| Somebody was yelling that the price got freezed |
| There was a rioting mob, a strangling hold |
| I received the bill for the escaping cold |
| It was about this time that I was goin’insane |
| I went and picked the kids up in the other lane |
| Put back the food and ran out of the store |
| I ain’t goin’back to that place no more |
| Well I’m tellin the truth now, I don’t fib |
| I don’t mind no women’s lib |
| But if my woman don’t want |
| To go down to the store |
| The family ain’t gonna eat no more |
