《Wish I Had Stayed In The Wagon Yard》歌词

[00:00:00] Wish I Had Stayed in the Wagon Yard - Lowe Stokes

[00:00:18] I am a jolly farmer

[00:00:20] Last night I came to town

[00:00:22] To bring a bale of cotton

[00:00:24] I'd worked the whole year round

[00:00:26] I put my team in the wagon yard

[00:00:29] And bought me a bottle of gin

[00:00:31] I went out to see the electric lights

[00:00:33] And watch the cars come in

[00:00:36] I met a dude out on the street

[00:00:38] That clock was striking nine

[00:00:40] He said come on old hayseed

[00:00:43] Take a drink it's mine

[00:00:45] I must have bought a dozen drinks

[00:00:47] 'Cause it hit my pocketbook hard

[00:00:50] I wish I'd bought me a half a pint

[00:00:52] And stayed in the wagon yard

[00:01:12] Listen to me farmers I'm here to talk with sense

[00:01:16] If you want to see them electric lights

[00:01:18] Just look right over the fence

[00:01:21] Don't monkey with them city ducks

[00:01:23] You'll find them slick as lard

[00:01:25] Just go and get you a half a pint

[00:01:28] And stay in the wagon yard

[00:01:47] As I'm a deacon in a hard shell church

[00:01:50] Down near Possum Trot

[00:01:52] If the sisters hear about my spree

[00:01:54] It's bound to make them hot

[00:01:56] I went out on a party

[00:01:59] I led the pace that kills

[00:02:01] When I woke up

[00:02:02] That gang had gone and left me all the bills

[00:02:05] I found them over on the corner

[00:02:08] Near Soul Salvation Hall

[00:02:10] That drunken bunch was out there

[00:02:12] Singing Jesus Paid It All

[00:02:14] They put me out in a dry goods box lord

[00:02:17] My pillow was hard

[00:02:19] I wish I'd bought me a half a pint

[00:02:21] And stayed in the wagon yard
