There'll Be No Next Time
(专辑: 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
