letra de stevedore's back - al duvall

to the cellar and down the stares
you will soon forget your cares
for your cares are nothing compared to theirs
afficionados of the garbage can
a p-ssyfoot and an also-ran
a bearded lady trapped in the body of a man
burning books about the rise and fall
the leaves are brown and the loaves are small
they’re sick of nothing–now they want it all

linen, leather, silk, and suede
it’s all the same to the chambermaid
gold and ivory in the sack
it’s all the same to the stevedore’s back
linen, leather, silk, and suede
it’s all the same to the chambermaid
gold and ivory in the sack
it’s all the same to the stevedore’s back

nickel city just around the bridge
tea and crumpets underneath a bridge
steak and lobster in a kerosene fridge
tar and feathers on a folding bed
velvet curtains on the shanty shed
a shiny topper on a lousy head
paregoric from a silver spoon
kept awake by their favorite tune
gasping and hanging from a crescent moon
linen, leather, silk, and suede
it’s all the same to the chambermaid
gold and ivory in the sack
it’s all the same to the stevedore’s back
linen, leather, silk, and suede
it’s all the same to the chambermaid
gold and ivory in the sack
it’s all the same to the stevedore’s back
