Flyswatter / Ice Water Blues (Monte Trenckmann's Blues)

歌詞

Honey put down that flyswatter And pour me some ice water And would you bring me my hammer And could you find me some nails For soon I'll be going To work for this living And with you here to guide me Then I cannot fail The morning it stumbles Right in through the window And this getting up early Gets old anyway And if you listen close dear The crying that you hear Is the nighttime lamenting The start of the day And it's hotter than concrete In July in Houston And it'll get worse here Before it turns nice But old Tink's in the backyard And I swear that boy's so smart He's got everything ready So we'll be all right So honey put down that flyswatter And pour me some ice water And though I'll soon be going Well I haven't gone yet So come stand here beside me And hold my hand gently And tell me do you remember The first time we met
