Copyright 2002 Jay Johnson Blues Number Five Henry had a handmade hand-me-down hat hung up on his head Henry had a handmade hand-me-down hat hung up on his head Got it off a man in Georgia Filled him full of lead Billy bought a bucket of beer in a bar in Baytown with a two dollar bill Billy bought a bucket of beer in a bar in Baytown with a two dollar bill Got it off a man in Georgia Hanging on a hill Percy pulled a pawnshop pistol on a preacher in Pittsburg and put him in a hole Percy pulled a pawnshop pistol on a preacher in Pittsburg and put him in a hole Got it off a man in Georgia Swinging on a pole Sammy stole a chartreuse Silverado step-side sitting on the side of the road Sammy stole a chartreuse Silverado step-side sitting on the side of the road Got it off a man in Georgia Relieved him of his load Somewhere down in Georgia theres a lonely man swinging naked in the sun Somewhere down in Georgia theres a lonely man swinging naked in the sun Stumbled on a band of outlaws (that) killed him just for fun The world is full of friendly people that just ain't what they seem The world is full of friendly people that just ain't what they seem You can never quite trust a man in a dress Or a woman in skin tight blue jeans. |
