I said I'm sittin' here watchin' Matchbox holdin' my clothes I said I'm sittin' here wonderin' Matchbox holdin' in my clothes I ain't got no matches But I sure got a long way to go
I'm a lone poor boy And I'm a long way from home I'm a lone poor boy And I'm a long way from home I've never been happy 'Cause ev'rything I ever did was wrong
Well, if you don't want my peaches, honey Please don't shake my tree If you don't want any of those peaches, honey Please don't mess around my tree I got news for you, baby Leave me here in misery
Well, let me be your little dog Till your big dog comes Let me be your little dog Till your big dog comes And when your big dog gets here Watch how your puppy dog runs
Well, I said I'm sittin' here watchin' Matchbox holdin' my clothes I said I'm sittin' here watchin' Matchbox holdin' my clothes I ain't got no matches But I sure got a long way to go
