Shorty George
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
He's taken all the women and left the men behind

Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
He's taken all the women and left the men behind
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine

Oh the big bell ringing with a dreary tone
Oh the big bell ringing with a dreary tone
But I'm lonely lonely baby and a long long way from home

Oh the big bell ringing with a dreary tone
But I'm lonely lonely baby and a long long way from home
Oh the big bell ringing with a dreary tone

I'm sitting here wondering if a matchbox will hold my clothes
I'm sitting here wondering if a matchbox will hold my clothes
I want to be buying a suitcase down my road

I'm sitting here wondering if a matchbox will hold my clothes
I want to be buying a suitcase down my road

Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
He's taken all the women and left the men behind
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
Shorty George, he ain't no friend of mine
