That's the Bag I'm in Songtext

von Gram Parsons

Every mornin' when I wake up
Burn my fingers on the coffee pot
Toast is cold and the juice is always hot.
I'd start over but I know I better not.
Same thing will happen again
Cause that's the bag I'm in.
Other day when I was walkin' down the street,
Whistling the blues to the tap of my feet,
Some old bag called the cop on the beat.
It happens every time.
Every moment when I wake up,
Miss my connection and I'm late for work again
I ain't seen the sunshine since I can't remember when
I guess they'll drop the Atom bomb the day my ship comes in.
Sometimes you just can't win
Every morning when I wake up
Burn my fingers on the pot
Toast is cold and the orange juice is hot.
I'd start over but I guess I better not
Same thing gonna happen again cause that's the bag I'm in.
Every morning when I wake up,
Miss my connection and I'm late for work again
I ain't seen the sunshine since I can't remember when
I guess they'll drop the Atom bomb the day my ship comes in.
Sometimes you just can't win
Every morning when I wake up,
Burn my fingers on the pot,
Toast is cold and the juice is always hot,
I'd start over but I guess I better not
Something will happen again and again
And again and again and again.
'cause that's the bag I'm in.
