Barley & Grape Rag |
Well I don’t care if I get arrested |
'Cos tonight they’ll need more than a ball and chain |
I don’t care who’s interested |
I’m coming into town just the same |
I’ve been so alone, I’ve been feeling blue |
I think I need a little drink or two |
Be my friend, tell me where the place is |
Where the whiskey flows and the dices roll till dawn? |
My baby’s done me wrong you must have guessed it |
My heart’s so low I think it must be told |
That I don’t wanna know where east or west is |
'Cos pretty soon I won’t feel the cold |
When I’m walking down mainstreet, feeling no pain |
Along comes a cop, he can take my name |
And explain to me what a federal case is |
I’m mixing the barley with the grape again |
Bright city lights, make me feel alright |
I’m right or wrong and tomorrow never comes |
I don’t care if I get investigated |
And the city fathers they all black my name |
I’m pretty sure that you can smell the traces |
For tomorrow morning, I’ll take all the blame |
I’ve been feeling bad and feeling blue |
I think I need a little whiskey or two |
God, brother, you look like you could do with it too |
(That's true) |
Tonight I’ll sleep on a walking-cane |
Bright city lights, make me feel alright |
I’m right or wrong and tomorrow never comes |
I don’t care if I get arrested |
Cause tonight they’ll need more than a ball and chain |
I don’t care who’s interested |
I’m coming into town just the same |
I’ve been feeling alone and I’ve been feeling blue |
I think I need a little drink or two |
Hey, be my friend, tell me where the place is |
Where the whiskey flows and the dices roll till dawn |
