UNCLE TOM

Uncle Tom seems jaded
Though his crank still hangs to ride
Early in the morning
See him rise to cop the light

Afternoon you find him swaying
Rolling in the grass
Hoeing in the garden
As the leaves are greening fast

Singing
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool

Collection plates are empty
In the church where he met mass
Misdemeanor payments
Taking all his extra cash

Harvest moon be coming soon
Ole Tom he sure be fat
Lying back to cop a groove
To boogie by himself

Singing
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool

Uncle Tom seems jaded
Though his crank still hangs to ride
Early in the morning
See him rise to cop the light

Afternoon you find him swaying
Rolling in the grass
Hoeing in the garden
As the leaves are greening fast

Singing
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
Boo hoo hoo poor straight fool
