Pawnshop Blues.
Vocals, electric piano, drum and guitar arrangement - Ian Ferrin
Bass - Spencer Wright
Baby cut loose for another man
And I swerved off the rails
Had to take drastic action
To get the wind back in my sails,
I pawned everything she gave me
And burned the ticket stubs
Gave the cash to a charity
For kids hooked on drugs.
chorus
Just my luck, she's ancient news
But now I'm stuck
With the pawnshop blues.
Every morning when I walk to work
And on my way back home
I pass the pawnshop window
And it chills me to the bone,
Got to get her out of my system
And start facing the facts
But I feel her in my veins
When I see those nick knacks.
Repeat Chorus
bridge
There's a hand carved chess set
A bookshelf stereo
A wrist watch and a wrench set
And a book about Van Gogh,
Gifts she gave me with affection
I treasured them all
But now I find upon reflection
They make my skin crawl.
Repeat Chorus
