wintertime blues
|
| I've been too long with my nose in a book I hope you sing just as good as you look Come on over baby, I got a song for you A little jump of something I call The wintertime blues I wanna hear those mockingbird wings I want gravy on everything Lovin' in the kitchen What have we got to lose Just a nasty case of These ol' wintertime blues Cold as snot with a big frozen smile Ain't foolin' nobody after a while Time to let the cat out I've got a real short fuse I'm just about to blow up These ol' wintertime blues There's no spring There was never any spring Spring's a long gone thing There won't ever be a spring no more At least that's the way it feels when your Skin is cracked and peeled And you've been livin' under sixty pounds of blanket And the snow's drifting up to your window And you're out of firewood And the wolf is howling at your door Three hours of day light and all of them gray The suicide prevention group has all run away I'm running out of groceries I ain't got no rubber shoes Bring the bacon baby I got the wintertime blues I could cut a hole in the floor Catch you a fish by a quarter to four But I'm stuck up this mountain Where I got a bird's eye view Of couple more months of these ol' wintertime blues And it's a one, two My lips are turning blue Come on over baby What have we got to lose Just a nasty case of These ol' wintertime blues And it's three, four I'm stiff as Al Gore Come on over baby What have we got to lose Just a nasty case of these ol' wintertime blues Well, it's the same old drill For Punxsutawney Phil If he sees his own shadow I'm shootin' to kill Come on over baby I stand accused There's a man going crazy up here With the wintertime blues |
