|
Windy old head |
|
I sang along with the words that she said |
|
Happy and bad |
|
'Where goes the time?' |
|
She asked me once |
|
Oh and if you don't mind |
|
Give back my heart when you go |
|
Begging bowl blues |
|
Wrapped round my head |
|
Like a fistful of news nobody reads |
|
Me and her name I can't recall |
|
I was never the same after she left me |
|
And oh I missed her so |
|
Never thought much of her reason to go |
|
And well, she cast a spell |
|
Under I fell in a useless hello |
|
Useless old day |
|
Wishing the hours would take me away |
|
Just for a while |
|
Nobody's crook, stealing an answer |
|
Oh why does he look drunk as the day he was born? |
|
Ragged and torn, lives for the money these days, |
|
What a joke |
|
And once, twice is a sin |
|
Couldn't get in with the elegant folk |
|
I cannot wait any longer |
|
And I cannot claim to be free |
|
Whenever it seems like I'm losing |
|
The begging bowl blues follow me |
|
And she cannot say that she's happy |
|
And I cant be sure if I care |
|
I got wrapped up in the money |
|
And the begging bowl blues kept me there |
