Open The Door Richard - Original Mono - Louis Jordan[00:00:00]
Open the door richard[00:00:08]
Open the door and let me in[00:00:12]
Open the door richard[00:00:16]
Richard why don't you open that door[00:00:19]
I met old zeke standin on the corner the other day[00:00:23]
That cat sure was booted with the liqour[00:00:26]
He was what he was abnoxicated he was what[00:00:28]
He was inebriated he was what well he was just plain drunk[00:00:32]
Well alright then[00:00:38]
He was sure salty with the bartender[00:00:39]
The bartender's tryin to make him by another drink[00:00:41]
Zeke told the bartender[00:00:44]
There ain't no need of me buyin no drinks[00:00:45]
When everyone else is buyin them[00:00:48]
I'm goin to drink to everybody's health till I ruin my own[00:00:50]
Open the door richard[00:00:55]
Why don't he know who he's throwin outta that joint[00:00:58]
Why I'll go back in that joint and take a short stick[00:01:00]
And bust it down to the ground[00:01:05]
Open the door richard[00:01:08]
But I hate to be caught out on the street like this[00:01:11]
Cause I got class I ain't never used yet[00:01:18]
But I guess I better get on in the house[00:01:22]
Cause I don't want my pastor to catch me out like this[00:01:24]
Hey richard Open the door[00:01:28]
Now look at that old woman across the street[00:01:32]
Done stuck her head outta the window callin her sister[00:01:34]
Look at her and her sister sayin ain't that him ain't that him[00:01:37]
Yes it's me and I'm drunk again[00:01:40]
Open the door richard[00:01:45]
I know he's in there cause I got on the clothes [00:01:48]
They can't throw him out cause I owe just as[00:01:51]
Much back rent as he does[00:01:53]
Imagine that old woman chargin us[00:01:55]
Three dollars a month and gettin mad cause we 12 months in the arears[00:01:57]
Come meetin me last thursday sayin[00:02:02]
'Ain't you boys goin to give me some back rent[00:02:04]
I told her she'd be lucky if she got some front rent[00:02:06]
Open the door richard hey come on open the door[00:02:11]
Cause I'm standin here scratchin in my pants pocket[00:02:19]
And standin here gropin in my coat pocket[00:02:23]
And standin here feelin in my shirt pocket[00:02:28]
And I can't find the key[00:02:32]
