Shel Silverstein - Alimony Lyrics



Shel Silverstein - Alimony Lyrics




Alimony alimony I work till my fingers are bloody and boney

Me oh my oh goodness sake I'm paying for my mistake

She calls it alimony alimony yeah you single men may think it's funny

Till one of these days you're gonna wake and find you're payin' for your mistake



Pom pom I walk around ragged like a low-down bum

I can't afford to weigh myself or buy a stick of gum

It's the same old story with a little more blues in it

I'm payin' for it while someone else is usin' it

Alimony alimony I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney

My heart and back are both about to break from payin' for my mistake yeah

[ harmonica ]

Yeah I walk around ragged like a low down bum

I can't afford to weigh myself or buy a stick of gum

Why it's the same old story with a little more blues in it

I'm payin' for it while someone else is usin' it

Alimony alimony thought I bought steak and it was just baloney

And every penny that I make goes to payin' for my mistake

Oh yeah payin' for my mistake every Wednesday<BR>

(Yeah aw come on baby y'know it's your mistake too yeah

They took all the furniture and everything come on

Why maybe we could sorta pitch in and work it out y'know

I mean I could get a third job if that's what you want I mean

What about sellin' my blood y'know)
