Daddys Little Pumpkin — текст песни (John Prine)

You must be daddys little pumpkin

I can tell by the way you roll

You must be daddys little pumpkin

I can tell by the way you roll

Why its quarter past eleven

And youre sleeping on the bedroom floor



I can see the fire burning

Burning right behind your eyes

I can see the fire burning

Burning right behind your eyes

You must of swallowed a candle

Or some other kind of surprise



Im going down to memphis

I got three hundred dollars in cash

Im going down to memphis

I got three hundred dollars in cash

All the women in memphis

Want to see how long my money will last



Im going downtown

Im gonna to rattle somebodys cage



Im going downtown

Im gonna rattle somebodys cage

Im gonna beat on my guitar

And strut all around the stage



If you see my baby coming

Dont tell her that her daddys in jail

If you see my baby coming

Dont you tell her that her daddys in jail

Shed sell her little pumpkin just to raise

Her sweet daddys bail



You must be daddys little pumpkin

I can tell by the way you roll

You must be daddys little pumpkin

I can tell by the way you roll

You never do nothing

To save your doggone soul.
