Matchbox

I been sitting here wondering,

will a matchbox hold my clothes

I been sitting here wondering,

will a matchbox hold my clothes

Ain't got no matches, but I got a long way to go

I'm an old poor boy, ain't got no home

Yes, I'm an old poor boy, and I'm a long,

long, long way from home

Everything I do certainly turns out mighty wrong

Well, if you don't like my peaches, honey,

please don't shake my tree

If you don't like Jerry's peaches,

don't fool around on his tree

I got news for you, baby, I'll leave you here in misery

Yes, I'm sitting here wondering,

will a matchbox hold my clothes

Oh! I'm sitting here wondering,

will a matchbox hold my clothes

Ain't got no matches, but I got a long way to go
