Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

I said I'm sit-ting here wat-chin',
matchbox hole in my clothes;
I said I'm sit-ting here wond'rin,
matchbox hole in my clothes.
I ain't got no matches,
but I sure got a long way to go.

I'm an ol' poor boy and
I'm a long way from home;
I'm an ol' poor boy and
I'm a long way from home;

I'll never be hap-py, 'cause
every-thing I ever did was wrong.
Well, if you don't want to
be my peaches, honey,
please don't shake my tree;
If you don't want any
of those peach-es, honey,
please don't mess around my tree.
I got news for you ba-by, leave me here in misery.

*Spoken* All Right!

Well, let me be your little dog
till your big dog comes;
Let me be your little dog
while your big dog comes;
And when your big dog gets here,
watch how your puppy runs.
Well, I said I'm sit-tin' here watching,
matchbox hole in my clothes.
I ain't got no match-es,
but I sure got a long way to go.

I said I'm sit-ting here wat-chin',
match-box hole in my cloth-es;
I said I'm sit-ting here wond'rin,
matchbox hole in my clothes.
I ain't got no match-es,
but I sure got a long way to go.

I'll never be hap-py, 'cau-se
every-thing I ever did was wrong.
Well, if you don't want to
be my peaches, honey,
please don't shake my tree;
If you don't want any
of those peach-es, hon-ey,
please don't mess around my tree.
I got news for you ba-by,
leave me here in mi-sery.
