When I Was A Freeport And You Were The Main Drag

(الألبوم: Christmas And The Beads Of Sweat - 1970)

You took my heart, misery
You taught me blues
Well, I got a lot of patience baby
That's a lot of patience to lose
I'm crying

I'm mad at my country
Now I've been treated bad
When I was a freeport
And you were the main drag

Broken blues
I just don't know
Little bird flying by my window
Take me when you go
I'm crying

I'm looking at these times
And it's bound to drive me mad
When I was a freeport
And you were the main drag

What did I do?
Everybody's putting me down
I keep running
But the law kept coming around, yeah

So fare thee well, happiness
'Cause I've got blues, oh
And I got a lot of patience baby
That's a lot of patience to lose
I'm a woman

Waiting for due time
Now I've been treated bad
When I was a freeport
And you were the main drag, yeah
