Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - Nina Simone[00:00:01]

When you're lost in the rain in juarez[00:00:10]

And its easter time too[00:00:14]

And your gravity fails[00:00:20]

And negativity don't pull you through[00:00:22]

Don't put on any airs[00:00:30]

When you're down on rue morgue avenue[00:00:33]

They got some hungry women there[00:00:40]

And they really make a mess out of you[00:00:43]

Now if you see saint annie[00:00:55]

Please tell her thanks a lot[00:00:59]

I can not move[00:01:05]

My fingers are all in a knot[00:01:07]

I don't have the strength[00:01:15]

To get up and take another shot[00:01:18]

And my best friend my doctor[00:01:25]

Won't even say what it is I have got[00:01:27]

Sweet melinda[00:01:40]

The peasants call her the goddess of gloom[00:01:43]

She speaks good English[00:01:50]

And she invites you up into her room[00:01:53]

And you're so kind[00:01:59]

And careful not to go to her too soon[00:02:01]

And she takes your voice[00:02:09]

And leaves you howling at the moon[00:02:12]

Up on housing project hill[00:02:29]

It's either fortune or fame[00:02:33]

You can pick one or the other[00:02:39]

Though neither of them[00:02:42]

Are to be what they claim[00:02:43]

If you're looking to get silly[00:02:49]

You better go back to from where you came[00:02:52]

Because the cops don't need you[00:02:58]

And man they expect the same[00:03:01]

Now all the authorities[00:03:14]

They just stand around and boast[00:03:18]

How they blackmailed the sergeant at arms[00:03:23]

Into leaving his post[00:03:27]

And picking up my borther car[00:03:33]

Just arrived here from the coast[00:03:36]

Who looked so fine at first[00:03:42]

But left looking just like a ghost[00:03:45]

I started out on burgundy[00:04:02]

But soon hit the harder stuff[00:04:07]

Everybody said they'd stand behind me[00:04:13]

When the game got rough[00:04:16]

But the joke was on me[00:04:22]

There was nobody even there to bluff[00:04:24]

I'm going back to new york city[00:04:30]

I do believe I've had enough[00:04:34]
