Doin' That Rag

--------------



Da da da da da da da da da da da



Sing in rainbow valley chasing light beams

Everything wanders from baby to Z

Baby baby pretty up on Tuesday

Old like a rum-drinking demon at tea.



Baby baby tell me what's the matter

What, what tell me what's your whine now?

Tell me why will you never come home

Tell me what's your reason, if you've got a good one.



Everywhere I go, the people all know

Everyone's doin' that rag.

Everywhere I go, the people all know

Everyone's doin' that rag.



Take my line, go fishin' for a Tuesday,

Maybe take my supper, eat it down by the sea.

Gave my baby twenty or forty good reasons,

Couldn't find any better ones in the morning at three.



The rain gonna come, but the rain gonna go y'know.

Steppin' off sharply from the rank and file.

Often cold and dark like a dungeon

Maybe get a little bit dark for the day.



All these tripsters, real cool chicksters (???)

Everyone's doin' that rag.

Hipsters, tripsters, real cool chicksters

Everyone's doin' that rag.



You needn't gild the lily, offer jewels to the sunset.

No one is watchin', a'standing in your shoes.

Wash your lonely feet in the river in the morning,

Everything promised is delivered to you.



Don't neglect to pick up what your share is,

All the winter birds are winging home now.

Hey love go, and look around you,

Nothing out there you haven't seen before now.



Wade in the water and you'll never get wet

If you keep on doin' that rag.

Wade in the water and you'll never get wet

If you keep on doin' that rag.



One-eyed jacks and the dueces are wild

And the aces are crawlin' up and down your sleeve.

Come back here baby Louise

And tell me the name of the game that you play.



Is it all fall down? Is it all go under?

Is it all fall down? Is it all go under?

Is it all fall down? Is it all go under?

Is it all fall down? Is it all go under?

Is it all fall down? Is it all go under?

Is it all fall down? Is it all go under
