Subterranean Homesick Blues
Johnny's in the basement Mixin' up the medicine I'm on the pavement Thinkin' 'bout the government The man in the trench coat Badge out, laid off Says he's got a bad cough Wants to get it paid off Look out, kid It's somethin' you did God knows when But you're doin' it again You better duck down the alleyway Lookin' for a new friend The man in the coonskin cap In the big pen Wants eleven dollars bills You only got ten
Maggie comes fleet foot Face full of black soot Talkin' that the heat put Plants in the bed but The phone's tapped anyway Maggie says that many say They must bust in early May Orders from the D.A. Look out, kid Don't matter what you did Walk on your tiptoes Don't try 'No Doz' Better stay away from those That carry 'round a fire hose Keep a clean nose Watch the plain clothes You don't need a weatherman To know which way the wind blows
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Ah, get sick, get well Hang around the ink well Ring bell, hard to tell If anything is gonna sell Try hard, get barred Get back, write braille Get jailed, jump bail Join the army if you fail Look out kid You're gonna get hit By losers, cheaters Six-time users Hangin' 'round the theaters Girl by the whirlpool's Lookin' for a new fool Don't follow leaders Watch your parkin' meters
Oh, get born, keep warm Short pants, romance Learn to dance, get dressed Get blessed, try to be a success Please her, please him, buy gifts Don't steal, don't lift Twenty years of schoolin' And they put you on the dayshift Look out kid They keep it all hid Better jump down a manhole Light yourself a candle Don't wear sandals Try to avoid the scandals Don't wanna be a bum You better chew gum The pump don't work 'Cause the vandals took the handles
