Junco Partner lyrics
Song information
Artist: The Clash Album: Sandinista!
Lyrics
Down the road came a junco partner Boy, he was loaded as can be He was knocked out, knocked out loaded He was a'wobblin' all over the street
Singing 6 months ain't no sentence Yeah, and one year ain't no time I was born in angola Serving 14 to 99
Well I wish I had me one million dollars Oh, one million to call my own I would raise me, and say, "grow for me baby" Raise me a tobacco farm
Take a walk, take a walk, junco partner
Well, when I had me a great deal of money Yeah, I had mighty good things all over town Now I ain't got no more money All of my good friends they're putting me down
So now I gotta pawn my ratchet and pistol Yeah I'm gonna pawn my watch and chain I would have pawned my sweet gabriella But the smart girl she wouldn't sign her name
(Repeat first verse twice)
Well I'm down, yes I'm getting thirsty Pour me out a good beer, when I'm dry Just, just give me whisky, when I'm thirsty Give me headstone when I die
Down the road
