Junco Partner

Oh, down the road came a poor little junko

Boys, he was loaded as he could be

The poor man was knocked out, knocked out and loaded

And he was wobblin' all over the street

I heard him singing six months with no sentence

He said one year was not no time

He said he had friends still in Angola

Servin' from fourteen to ninety-nine

You know when he had plenty of money

He had a friend all over town

Since he been broke, ragged and hungry

Not a single friend can be found

Oh well, the poor man pawned his watch and pistol

Oh, he pawned his diamond ring

He tried to pawn the woman he was lovin'

But the poor girl couldn't sign her name

She said give him water when he gets thirsty

Tell him that water is mighty fine when you're dry

Give him attention when he gets sickly

Give him the graveyard, that is, if he dies

Oh, down the road came a poor little junko

Boys, he's loaded as he can be

The poor man is knocked out, knocked out and loaded

And he's wobblin' all over the street

Oh well, the poor man sung six months with no sentence

One year was not no time

He said he had friends still in Angola

Servin' from fourteen to ninety-nine

Oh well, he pawned his watch and pistol

Yes, he pawned his diamond ring

He tried to pawn the woman he was lovin'

But the poor girl couldn't sign her name

She said give him water when he gets thirsty

Tell him that water is mighty fine when you're dry

And give him attention when he gets sickly

Give him the graveyard in case he dies

Or give him the graveyard, that's if he dies

Or give him the graveyard in case he dies
