Don't Ease Me In - Henry Thomas

Sometimes I walk: and sometimes I talk

I love you girl great God: *till my bluebird talk*

I beat my girl: with a singletree

???

up *the winter* street mama: have a watch on me

I’ve got a girl: her name is Joan

She leaves here walking running fast: chocolate to the

Bone

I was standing on the corner: talking to my brown

I turned around sweet mama: I was workhouse bound

Girl I’ve got a girl: and she working hard

She got a dress she wear sweet mama: said it’s pink and

Blue

She brings me coffee: and she bring me tea

She bring me everything: except the jailhouse key

They got a little town man: all the other men too

They got all the women coming down to the man: *I mean

In Texas too*
