| Hey mister, that’s me up on the jukebox
|
| I’m the one that’s singin' this sad song
|
| Well, I’ll cry every time that you slip in one more dime
|
| And let the boy sing the sad one one more time
|
| Southern California, that’s as blue as the boy can be
|
| Blue as the deep blue sea, won’t you listen to me now
|
| I need your golden gated cities like a hole in the head
|
| Just like a hole in the head, I’m free
|
| Hey mister, that’s me up on the jukebox
|
| I’m the one that’s singin' this sad song
|
| Well, I’ll cry every time that you slip in one more dime
|
| And let the boy sing the sad one one more time
|
| I do believe I’m headed home
|
| Hey mister, can’t you see that I’m as dry as a bone
|
| I think I’ll spend some time alone
|
| Yes, unless you’ve found a way of squeezin' water from a stone
|
| Let the doctor and the lawyer do as much as they can
|
| Let the springtime begin, let the boy become a man
|
| I done wasted too much time just to sing you this sad song
|
| I done been this lonesome picker a little too long
|
| Hey mister, that’s me up on the jukebox
|
| I’m the one that’s singing this sad song
|
| Well, I’ll cry every time that you up and slippin' in one more dime
|
| And let the boy sing the sad one one more time
|
| Well I’ve been spreadin' myself thin these days, don’t you know?
|
| Goodbye! |
