Down On The Drag

Down on the drag, down on the drag

Some low down son of a bum

Even stole my sleepin' bag

Left me standin' at a newsstand

Readin' want ads in the rag

My baby's back up in Lubbock

And I'm down on the drag

The sooner I get to Houston

The sooner I'll catch my boat

We'll cross that Gulf of Mexico

I'm takin' anything that will float

Been down on the drag

Down on the drag

Some lowdown son-of-a-bum

Even stole my sleepin' bag

Left me standin at a newsstand

Readin' want ads in the rag

My baby's back up in Lubbock

And I'm down on the drag

The sooner I leave this town behind

The sooner I'll get control

Of all my crazy dreams and my hard-losin' schemes

And my heart, body, mind and soul

Been down on the drag

Down on the drag

Some lowdown son-of-a-bum

Even stole my sleepin' bag

Left me standin at a news stand

Readin' want ads in the rag

And my baby's back up in Lubbock

And I'm down on the drag

Now if you don't believe my story

I ain't gonna tell you no more

I never expect to see you again

I'll be sleepin down in some doorway

Down on the drag

Down on the drag

Some low down son of a bum

Even stole my sleepin' bag

Left me standin at a newsstand

Readin' want ads in the rag

My baby's back up in Lubbock

And I'm down on the drag

My baby's back up in Lubbock

And I'm down on the drag
