Just Like Tom Thumb’s Blues

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]
