Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues (LP Version) - Judy Collins[00:00:00]
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez[00:00:03]
And it's Eastertime too[00:00:07]
And your gravity fails[00:00:14]
And negativity don't pull you through[00:00:17]
Don't put on any airs[00:00:25]
When you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue[00:00:28]
They got some hungry women there[00:00:36]
And they really make a mess outa you[00:00:40]
Now if you see Saint Annie[00:00:48]
Please tell her thanks a lot[00:00:51]
I cannot move[00:00:58]
My fingers there are all in a knot[00:01:01]
I have got the strength[00:01:09]
To get up and take another shot[00:01:12]
And my best friend my doctor[00:01:20]
Won't even say what I've got[00:01:23]
Sweet Melinda[00:01:42]
The peasants call her the goddess of gloom[00:01:44]
She speaks good English[00:01:52]
And she invites you up into her room[00:01:54]
And you're so kind[00:02:02]
And careful not to go to her too soon[00:02:05]
And she steals your voice[00:02:13]
And leaves you howling at the moon[00:02:16]
Up on Housing Project Hill[00:02:24]
It's either fortune or fame[00:02:28]
You must pick up one or the other[00:02:34]
Though neither of them are to be what they claim[00:02:38]
If you're lookin' to get silly[00:02:45]
You better go back to from where you came[00:02:48]
Because the cops don't need you here[00:02:55]
And man they expect the same[00:02:59]
Now all the authorities[00:03:07]
They just stand around and boast[00:03:09]
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms[00:03:17]
Into leaving his post[00:03:21]
And picking up Angel who[00:03:27]
Just arrived here from the coast[00:03:31]
Who looked so fine at first[00:03:38]
But left looking just like a ghost[00:03:41]
When I started out on burgundy[00:04:02]
But soon hit the harder stuff[00:04:05]
Everybody said they'd stand behind me[00:04:13]
When the game got rough[00:04:18]
But you know the joke on me[00:04:24]
There was nobody even there to bluff[00:04:27]
I'm going back to New York City[00:04:34]
I do believe I've had enough[00:04:38]
