Matchbox (Carl Perkins)
I said I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes.
*repeat
I ain't got no matches but I sure
got a long way to go.
-------------------------------------
I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a
long way from home.
*repeat
I'll never be happy cause everything I've
ever did was wrong.
-------------------------------------
Well, If you don't want my peaches honey,
please don't shake my tree.
*repeat
I got news for you baby, leave me here in
misery.
-------------------------------------
Well, let me be your little dog, till your
big dog comes.
*repeat
And when your big dog gets here, watch how
your puppy dog runs.
-------------------------------------
First Verse.
