Little Boy Blue Songtext

von Holly Cole

Little boy blue, come and blow your horn
Dish ran away with the spoon
Home again, home again Saturday morn
He never gets up before noon

She used to render you legal and tender
And you used to send her your promises, boy
A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar
Come out and holler out all of your noise

Little boy blue, come and blow your top
Cut it right down to the quick
Don't sit home and cry on the fourth of July
Around now you're hittin' the bricks

Abracadabra, now she disappears
Every thing's Canada Dry
Watch your behavior and rattle your cage
With a bottle of Bourbon, goodbye

Little boy blue, lost little Bo Peep
She fell through a hole in the nest
Now ain't it peculiar that she's finally cooled
Your big wheels just like all of the rest

Whenever it rains, the umbrellas complain
They always get played for a chump
So mark it and strike it, she's history now
You're hangin' out at the pump

Little boy blue, come and blow your horn
The dish ran away with the spoon
Home again, home again Saturday morn
He never gets up before noon

She used to render you legal and tender
When you used to send her your promises, boy
A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar
Come out and holler out all of your noise
