Tired

(album: Whatever Julie Wants - 1961)

Tired of the life I lead
Tired of the blues I breed
Tired of the things I need
Gonna cut out wide and that's the truth
Get a brand new guy while I got my youth

Tired of the clothes I wear
Tired of the patches there
Tired of the crows I scare
Gonna move down town and spread my moo
Get a short fam shoe and a new guy too

Cleaning an' a-mopping
Dusting an' a-shopping
Sure leaves your ego low
Washing an' a-scrubbing
Starching an' a-socking
Don't make you look like no Marilyn Monroe

Tired of the tears I shed
Tired of living in the red
Tired of the same old bed
Gonna dress up fine like Cindy Lou
Gonna do the things I know she'd do
'Cause I'm tired, mighty tired of you

Sure leaves your ego low
Don't make you look like Marilyn Monroe

Tired of the tears I shed
Tired of living in the red
Tired of the same old bed
Gonna dress up fine like Cindy Lou
Gonna do the things I know she'd do
'Cause I'm tired, mighty tired of you
