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 slip in one more dime
|
and let the boy sing the sad song 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 singing this sad song.
|
Well, I'll cry every time that you slip in one more dime
|
and let the boy sing the sad song 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 squeezing 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 slip in one more dime
|
and let the boy sing the sad song one, one more time.
|
|
I've been spreading myself thin these days, don't you know? Goodbye.
