Текст и слова песни Stan Ridgway – Mama Had A Stove
They say that I'm a loner
They say that I'm a stooge
But all I've ever wanted
Was back in Baton Rouge
We'd paddle up the river
Go fishin' in a stream
We'd see the people drinkin'
On the Mississippi Queen
Chorus:
And Mama had a stove
And Daddy had a still
Then Daddy ran away
With his second cousin Jill
I left home at ten
I joined a carnival
Washin' down the elephants
Life was never dull
One night when the clowns
Had all got drunk
I sneaked into your wagon
And rifled through your trunk
Chorus repeat
And Mama raised us up
To never tell a lie
They say that I'm a stooge
But all I've ever wanted
Was back in Baton Rouge
We'd paddle up the river
Go fishin' in a stream
We'd see the people drinkin'
On the Mississippi Queen
Chorus:
And Mama had a stove
And Daddy had a still
Then Daddy ran away
With his second cousin Jill
I left home at ten
I joined a carnival
Washin' down the elephants
Life was never dull
One night when the clowns
Had all got drunk
I sneaked into your wagon
And rifled through your trunk
Chorus repeat
And Mama raised us up
To never tell a lie
