Down on the Drag

Lyrics

[Chorus] Down on the drag, down on the drag Some low down son of a bum Even stole my sleepin' bag Left me standin' at a newsstand Readin' want ads in the rag My baby's back up in Lubbock And I'm down on the drag [Verse 1] The sooner I get to Houston The sooner I'll catch my boat We'll cross that Gulf of Mexico I'm takin' anything that will float [Chorus] Been down on the drag Down on the drag Some lowdown son-of-a-bum Even stole my sleepin' bag Left me standin at a newsstand Readin' want ads in the rag My baby's back up in Lubbock And I'm down on the drag [Verse 2] The sooner I leave this town behind The sooner I'll get control Of all my crazy dreams and my hard-losin' schemes And my heart, body, mind and soul [Chorus] Been down on the drag Down on the drag Some lowdown son-of-a-bum Even stole my sleepin' bag Left me standin at a news stand Readin' want ads in the rag And my baby's back up in Lubbock And I'm down on the drag [Saxophone and Guitar Solos] [Verse 3] Now if you don't believe my story I ain't gonna tell you no more I never expect to see you again I'll be sleepin down in some doorway [Chorus] Down on the drag Down on the drag Some low down son of a bum Even stole my sleepin' bag Left me standin at a newsstand Readin' want ads in the rag My baby's back up in Lubbock And I'm down on the drag [Outro] My baby's back up in Lubbock And I'm down on the drag
