Written by:Garcia Jerome J./Hunter Robert C.[00:00:01]
Old man down way down down[00:01:05]
Down by the docks of the city[00:01:16]
Blind and dirty asked me for a dime[00:01:27]
A dime for a cup of coffee[00:01:38]
I got no dime but I got some time to hear his story[00:01:45]
My name is August West and I love my Pearly Baker best[00:02:07]
More than my wine more than my wine[00:02:15]
More than my maker though he's no friend of mine[00:02:33]
Everyone said I'd come to no good I knew I would pearly believe them[00:02:46]
Half of my life I spent doing time for some other f**ker's crime[00:03:08]
The other half found me stumbling 'round drunk on burgundy wine[00:03:26]
But I'll get back on my feet someday[00:03:39]
The good lord willin' if he says I may[00:04:01]
I know that the life I'm living's no good[00:04:23]
I'll get a new start live the life I should[00:04:43]
I'll get up and fly away I'll get up and fly away fly away[00:05:06]
Pearly's been true true to me true to my dyin' day he said[00:05:40]
I said to him I said to him I'm sure she's been[00:06:01]
I said to him I'm sure she's been true to you[00:06:18]
I got up and wandered wandered downtown[00:06:43]
Nowhere to go but just hang around[00:06:54]
I've got a girl named Bonnie Lee I know that girl's been true to me[00:07:04]
I know she's been I'm sure she's been true to me[00:07:25]
