Carpenter Street Blues
Carpenter Street blues
Gonna take a toll on me.
You know I gotta be leavin’
Before I learn to play the part perfectly.
I got a woman
Trying to wear my pants for me.
Naggin’ me all day and night.
Why won’t that woman treat me right?
I got the blues in the morning.
I got more blues at night
Blues at work the next day
You know things don’t look so bright.
Gonna find myself runnin’
On down the road.
I’m gonna leave you Carpenter Street
Just like I told you so.
I aint got no money.
Just a houseful of woes.
I can’t drink my troubles away.
I think I’ll just fade away.
