lirik lagu mel mcdaniel – shoe string
he lived down by the railroad track
had an old wood stove and a one room shack
shoestring was the only name he had
when i’d skip school he’d take me fishin’
sittin’ on a creek bank talkin’ and wishin’
things were good whenever times got bad
and the people say
shoestring you ain’t got no money!
shoestring ya can’t hang around here!
shoestring ya got your hat on back’rds!
he knows more than most folks do
but he don’t talk unless you ask him to
when the winter comes and the wind blows mean
shoestring hops that southbound train
rides it down below that florida line
but he’s layin’ low and pickin’ fruit
sleepin’ in his worn out shoes
but he’ll always come back come summertime
and the folks say
shoestring you ain’t got no money!
shoestring ya can’t hang around here!
shoestring ya got your hat on back’rds!
he knows more than most folks do
but he don’t talk unless you ask him to
last time i looked and found him gone
folks said he’s in an old folks home
shoestring done retired on uncle sam
he’s livin’ it up in his private room
playin’ checkers and eatin’ prunes
shoestring ain’t no ordinary man
still the people say
shoestring you ain’t got no money!
shoestring ya can’t hang around here!
shoestring ya got your hat on back’rds!
he knows more than most folks do
but he don’t talk unless you ask him to
shoestring you ain’t got no money!
shoestring ya can’t hang around here!
shoestring ya got your hat on back’rds!
he knows more than most folks do
but he don’t talk unless you ask him to
