Pawn Shop Blues
Well, I didn't know it would come to thisBut that's what happens when you're on your ownAnd you're alright letting nice things go
Well, I pawned the earrings that you gave meGold and made of flowers danglingAnd I almost cried as I sold them allI don't mind living on bread and oranges, no noBut I gotta get to and from where I comeAnd it's gonna take money to goOh no, oh oh, oh oh...
In the name of higher consciousnessI let the best man I knew go'Cause it's nice to love and be lovedBut it's better to know all you can knowI said it's nice to love and be lovedBut I'd rather know what God knowsOh no, oh no, oh no...
I can do this once moreNo man can keep me togetherBeen broken since I was born
Well, I didn't know it would come to thisBut that's what happens when you're on your ownAnd you're alright letting nice things go
