Pawn Shop Blues
Well, I didn't know it would come to this but
That's what happens when you're on your own
And you're alright with letting nice things go
Well, I pawned the earrings that you gave me
Gold and made of flowers dangling
And I almost cried as I sold them off
And I don't mind living on bread and oranges, no, no
But I got to get to and from where I come
And it's gonna take money to go
Oh, no
Oh-oh, oh-ohh, oh-ohh
Oh-ohh
In the name of higher consciousness
I let the best man I knew go
Cause it's nice to love and be loved
But it's better to know all you can know
I said it's nice to love and be loved
But I'd rather know what God knows
Oh, no
Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no
Oh, no
I can't do this once more
No man can keep me together
Been broken since I was born
Well, I didn't know it would come to this but
That's what happens when you're on your own
And you're alright with letting nice things go
That's what happens when you're on your own
And you're alright with letting nice things go
Well, I pawned the earrings that you gave me
Gold and made of flowers dangling
And I almost cried as I sold them off
And I don't mind living on bread and oranges, no, no
But I got to get to and from where I come
And it's gonna take money to go
Oh, no
Oh-oh, oh-ohh, oh-ohh
Oh-ohh
In the name of higher consciousness
I let the best man I knew go
Cause it's nice to love and be loved
But it's better to know all you can know
I said it's nice to love and be loved
But I'd rather know what God knows
Oh, no
Oh, no, oh, no, oh, no
Oh, no
I can't do this once more
No man can keep me together
Been broken since I was born
Well, I didn't know it would come to this but
That's what happens when you're on your own
And you're alright with letting nice things go
