Codeine Velvet Club - Begging Bowl Blues lyrics
[Codeine Velvet Club - Begging Bowl Blues lyrics]
Windy old head, I sang along
With the words that she said, happy and bad
Where goes the time? She asked me once
"Oh, and if you don't mind
Give back my heart when you go"
Begging bowl blues wrapped 'round my head
Like a fistful of news nobody reads
Me and her name, I can't recall
I was never the same after she left me
And oh, I missed her so
Never thought much of her reason to go
And well, she cast a spell
Under I fell in a useless hello
Useless old day, wishing the hours
Would take me away just for a while
Nobody's crook, stealing an answer
Oh, why does he look drunk as
The day he was born
Ragged and torn
Lives for the money these days, what a joke
And once, twice is a sin
Couldn't get in with the elegant folk
I cannot wait any longer
And I cannot claim to be free
Whenever it seems like I'm losing
The begging bowl blues follow me
And she cannot say that she's happy
And I can't be sure if I care
I got wrapped up in the money
And the begging bowl blues kept me there
With the words that she said, happy and bad
Where goes the time? She asked me once
"Oh, and if you don't mind
Give back my heart when you go"
Begging bowl blues wrapped 'round my head
Like a fistful of news nobody reads
Me and her name, I can't recall
I was never the same after she left me
And oh, I missed her so
Never thought much of her reason to go
And well, she cast a spell
Under I fell in a useless hello
Useless old day, wishing the hours
Would take me away just for a while
Nobody's crook, stealing an answer
Oh, why does he look drunk as
The day he was born
Ragged and torn
Lives for the money these days, what a joke
And once, twice is a sin
Couldn't get in with the elegant folk
I cannot wait any longer
And I cannot claim to be free
Whenever it seems like I'm losing
The begging bowl blues follow me
And she cannot say that she's happy
And I can't be sure if I care
I got wrapped up in the money
And the begging bowl blues kept me there
