There ain't no Santa Claus on the evenin' stage |
| [00:37.873] |
There ain't no way to pull the curtain |
| [00:40.963] |
And hide from hunger's rage |
| [00:50.652] |
There ain't no town to stop in |
| [00:53.935] |
There ain't no time to stop in |
| [00:57.332] |
There ain't no straw for my horse |
| [01:00.230] |
There ain't no straw for my bed |
| [01:06.646] |
There ain't no comfort in cold boards |
| [01:09.921] |
There ain't no rumor or food for my stomach |
| [01:16.329] |
And someday I'm gonna be saved |
| [01:22.702] |
'Cause I gotta eat 'n drink 'n breathe 'n sleep |
| [01:26.656] |
And I'm a slave |
| [01:42.591] |
Down in hominy's grotto |
| [01:45.499] |
There's a soul dying 'n leavin' |
| [01:48.443] |
Every second on the evenin' stage |
| [01:56.200] |
There's a soul dying 'n rottin' |
| [01:58.542] |
And pickin' some new kinda cotton |
| [02:01.833] |
With his fingers broken |
| [02:04.588] |
And his heart, back and forgotten |
| [02:08.005] |
And there ain't no Santa Claus on the evenin' stage |
| [02:19.245] |
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho |
| [02:22.412] |
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho... |
