There'll Be No Next Time

(앨범: The Call Of The Wildest - 1957)

I saw this stranger leave my pad
And this made me awful sad
I don't blame ya
But in the meantime I was getting real mad
You had a right to be
And I said, "Baby, what explanation do you have?"
Well, what'd she say?
She said, "Mmm, next time"
I said, "There'll be no next time"
That was the last time for me
You told her right and I'm very proud of you

Then I grabbed my hat
And I headed for the door
Yeah don't, don't, don't come back, either
I knew I wouldn't be back there no more
You're doing the right thing, Sam
Out walked the landlord, a real cool gent
Well, what did he say?
He said, "Hey Sam, how about the rent?"
And what you told him?
I said, "Mmm, next time"

He said, "There'll be no next time"
You're coming up right now
Don't give him nothing, Sam
Pay no attention to him

Man, I jumped through that window
And my feet hit the ground
You was traveling fast
I figured I'd better get out of town
How, how, how was ya goin'?
When I arrived at the airport
Uh-oh, there was that man, failure to support
What did you say?
I said, "Mmm, next time"

He said, "There'll be no next time"
You're going to see the judge right now
You shouldn't have gone to the airport
But he took me to see that little friend of mine
Who, that little fella?
District judge
I remember him, room 229
Yeah, he was crazy

He said, "Sam"
What'd he say?
"Your payments are way behind"
I said, "Don't worry, Judge"
"It won't happen next time"
And what he said?
He said, "Mmm, next time?"
"There'll be no next time"
You're going to jail right now
You shouldn't have gone to the airport
I'm surprised at it, I'm surprised at it

He put me in a padded cell
Did they feed you?
On bread and water
And, man, that was, well

How long they keep ya?
Thirty days later on my way out
Well, what ya laughing about, Sam?
Here come my chick with a big fat mouth
Was she alone?
A policeman had her, was putting her in jail
What she wanted from you?
She wanted me to cover her bail

What you told her?
I said, "Next time"
There'll be no next time
That was the last time for me
