Mattie's Rag |
| Oh Mattie open up the door, that’s right I’m home again |
| You’ve got a big surprise in store, turn ‘round and count to ten |
| Wait ‘til you see what I got you, well you’ll say it’s a magic thing |
| It’s like an old mandolin man, you just wind him up and he’ll start to sing |
| I’ve been away for quite a while, and I want to hear all your news |
| Speak to me, let me see you smile, cause I’ve had those homesick blues |
| When I go down to that city I just don’t know wrong from right |
| When I go back to you Mattie, well you make me see the light |
| Love is a singular thing, it can take you up or bring you down |
| Yes love is a song that I sing, so come on now Mattie listen to the sound |
| When you grow up we’ll sit and talk of how things used to be |
| I’ll be a grand old man of rock with all these memories |
