Papa Charlie Jackson - We Can't Buy It No More текст песни

Исполнитель: Papa Charlie Jackson

альбом: The Complete Recorded Works 1924-1934


Things getting tight in this town
All the bootleggers are closing down
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
I went 'cross town, is where I used to stay
The guy hasn't got no liquor today
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
Now the bootleggers cryin', packin' their things
Everywhere you go you can hear them sing
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
I'd buy a drink, mama, just for you
But thirty-five years will never do
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
I used to get it for 25 cents a pint
Now they closin' all the moonshine joints
Because we can't buy it, now we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
Now it t'ain't no used to weep, t'ain't no used to wail
If you bought some of the hooch you're going to jail
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
All the bootleggers going to get a job
They gonna join that everyday workin' mob
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
I like my whiskey, like my wine
But I can't pay no ten thousand dollar fine
Because we can't buy it, we can't buy it
Town's gettin' dry, we can't buy it no more
