Skid Row — текст песни (Merle Haggard)

Well not long ago I was a happy man
Money in my pockets with the rings on my hands
My money`s all Gone and I`m feelin` low
Standin` on the corner of Skid Row

My girl friend left me she don`t want me no more
We had a great big fight just a night before
She said I got no class because she knows
I`ve been hangin` around on Skid Row

Well people walk by and they stop and stare
They giggle and they stickle at the clothes I wear
It`s just another day like it always goes
When you`re hangin` around on Skid Row

I got an old John Beam with the pain more through
Got a great big hole in the bottom of my shoe
My wine`s all gone and I need some more
Standin` on the corner of Skid Row

Well people walk by and they stop and stare
They giggle and they stickle at the clothes I wear
It`s just another day like it always goes
When you`re hangin` around on Skid Row
