Folksinger`s Song — текст песни (Kingston Trio)

Mike Settle

Well, how many beans could Woody have picked when he was always writing songs?
You believe that story about hard travelin`, well, I can tell you right now you`re wrong!
You see the only thing Woody picked was his guitar.
He had a very close friend writing words in the car.
How many beans could Woody have picked when he was always writing songs?

How many jail songs could Allen write? He ain`t never been in jail!
The only thing that Allen knows about jail is who to go his bail!
He had a thing going with a prison guard.
He had a tape recorder hooked up in the prison yard.
How many jail songs could Allen write? He ain`t never been in jail!

Now who was it that got that blues singer out of jail and got him singin` and playin`
And whose idea was it for him to start singin`
So you couldn`t understand what he was sayin`
And who led them blind folksingers around? Well, you can take it from me.
Ain`t nobody led them blind cats around `cause they can really see!
Yeah, they can really see!
