Clarissa Jones - Tom Paxton[00:00:00]
Clarissa Jones got bit on the heel[00:00:10]
By a rat and she hit it with a broom [00:00:12]
He ran to the corner and stood there grinning[00:00:14]
Like he owned the god damn room [00:00:17]
Clarissa Jones threw an iron at the rat[00:00:19]
And the rat just seemed to say Fine[00:00:21]
He twitched his tail in the corner and said[00:00:24]
You've got to go to sleep sometime[00:00:26]
Clarissa Jones's kid aged 16 hated his heavy old shoes [00:00:39]
He wanted fine strides like the studs on the street[00:00:43]
And they'd know he'd been paying his dues [00:00:46]
Clarissa Jones's kid got busted[00:00:48]
She was three days gettin' the news [00:00:50]
They gave him a meal[00:00:53]
A shower and a uniform[00:00:54]
And two old heavy shoes [00:00:55]
Clarissa Jones where are you going [00:00:57]
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones [00:01:00]
And where where [00:01:05]
Where is your man Clarissa Jones[00:01:06]
Clarissa Jones carried bedpans [00:01:24]
Swept up changed sheets and mopped the halls [00:01:26]
The doctors said she was a very good worker[00:01:28]
Clarissa Jones knew them all [00:01:31]
Now Clarissa Jones sits in her window[00:01:33]
With her paper reading[00:01:35]
How they burned the next street flat [00:01:36]
She's reading about the trouble[00:01:38]
She ought to write a letter saying[00:01:39]
Hey it never happened like that[00:01:41]
Clarissa Jones where are you going [00:01:42]
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones [00:01:45]
And where where where is your man Clarissa Jones[00:01:49]
Mr William Hawkins rose early [00:02:09]
Shaved dressed carefully and drank his tea [00:02:10]
He hit the desk at nine[00:02:14]
Thanks to the Board of Opportunity [00:02:15]
On his very first day[00:02:18]
This boss went to great lengths[00:02:19]
To make him feel at home [00:02:21]
And his first assignment[00:02:23]
Was a disposses on Miss Clarissa Jones [00:02:24]
Clarissa Jones where are you going [00:02:28]
It's cold and the wind is blowing through your bones[00:02:30]
And where where where is your man Clarissa Jones[00:02:35]
Ah where where where is your man Clarissa Jones[00:02:42]
