Thirteen days on a gig in the south

Thirteen days on a gig in the South.
|
We've got enough dope to keep us all around
|
We've got two girls dancin' to bring in a crowd
|
A sound man to mix us, make us sound loud
|
Sometimes we make money, sometimes I don't know
|
There's thirteen days with five to go
|
|
There's Birmingham, Mobile, and up to Baton Rouge
|
We're smokin' cigarettes and reefer, drinkin' coffee and
|
booze
|
I saw the sun go down in Atlanta, come up in New Orleans
|
I got to know a waitress, I tried to get in her jeans
|
Sometimes we make money, sometimes I don't know
|
There's thirteen days with five to go
|
|
Migrant Worker is the name of this band
|
If we're ever in your town, come see us if you can
|
Yeah, we been to New Orleans, we been to New York
|
Some take to the magazines, some take to dope
|
Sometimes we make money, sometimes I don't know
|
Thirteen days with five to go
