Standing in the corner of a bar With holes in my pockets And no laces in my shoes On a lazy Monday afternoon Punched by a drunk and drunk as a skunk I’m looking around for a face That reminds me of you
CHORUS
Well it ain’t easy I never thought it would be Looking for a girl that would put up With a bum like me But I’ve got my good points and I am thinking It’s hard to tell you what they are And then I see you driving towards me In a big fancy car
Oh take me home And put me to bed Read me a story And stroke my hair When I was a child My Mama would say Just wait till the morning comes It’s going to be another fine day
Lying on the floor of a bar with your photo in my pocket Cold comfort for my blues On a crazy Monday afternoon Kicked by a drunk and smelling like a skunk I’m looking up at a face That reminds me of you.
HOLES IN MY POCKET - Lyrics - continued
Well it ain’t easy I never thought it would be Looking for a smart girl to put up With a bum like me But I’ve got my good points and I am thinking It's hard to tell you what they are And then I see you coming towards me Like a big movie star
Oh Take me home And put me to bed Lay down beside me And stroke my hair When I was a young child My Mama would say Just wait until the morning comes It’s going to be another fine day.
And you never told me You were going away You know I’d give you my heart If only you’ll stay And you never told me You were going away You know I’d give you my heart For just one more day
Well it ain’t easy I never thought it would be Looking for a girl that would put up With a bum like me But I’ve got my good points and I am thinking It’s hard to tell you what they are And then I see you driving towards me In a big fancy car
Well it ain’t easy I never thought it would be Looking for a smart girl to put up With a bum like me But I’ve got my good points and I am thinking It's hard to tell you what they are And then I see you coming towards me Like a big movie star
