Cardboard Avenue - Ry Cooder[00:00:01]
Well thank you for the drink my friend that's alright with me[00:00:18]
Let's drink to the workingman wherever he might be[00:00:28]
Remember what he stood up for and the struggles he went through[00:00:37]
Then let us take a little stroll down Cardboard Avenue[00:00:45]
Down on the street where I live when evening comes around[00:00:59]
No T V or radio never hear a lonesome sound[00:01:09]
Except some poor Joe cryin' Lord can I make it up to you[00:01:18]
But he never gets an answer down on Cardboard Avenue[00:01:26]
Well here's my little heartbreak hotel now don't you be let down[00:02:15]
When the ghost of Hobo Bill comes a-shufflin' around[00:02:24]
He might pause by your side saying Buddy can you spare a dime or two[00:02:31]
Then he'll just drift off into the night on Cardboard Avenue[00:02:38]
Now I hear the whistle blowing now must be the Red Ball train[00:02:57]
We'll see you in the North Country when the springtime comes again[00:03:12]
Just ask any workingman wherever you might be[00:03:23]
The whereabouts of Reverend Tom Lefty Mouse and Buddy[00:03:30]
And if he asks you Were you in the fight did you join the strike of 1932[00:03:39]
Just tell him that you knew us down on Cardboard Avenue[00:03:50]
