Carey's Blues

 

It takes a long-handed shovel
to dig a nine foot hole
It takes a long-handed shovel
to dig a nine foot hole
It takes a long-handed woman
to satisfy my soul

When my woman treats me bad
I feel like a yellow pup
When my woman treats me bad
I feel like a yellow pup
I been down for so long
I don't which way is up

It takes a six-string guitar
to help me sing this song
It takes a six-string guitar
to help me sing this song
It takes a six-shot pistol
I won't be around too long

It takes a long handed poker
to make me feel so down
It takes a long handed poker
to make me feel so down
It takes a foul mouthed woman
to make me leave this town
