FIRE TRUCK BLUES (a.k.a. I'm Gonna Leave You Daddy)
(Patrick Sky)

Early this morning, my baby made me so.
Yes, early this morning, my baby made me so.
She said, "I'm gonna leave you, daddy, ain't coming back no more."

Standing on Brooklyn Bridge, ain't but one way to go.
Standing on Brooklyn Bridge, ain't but one way to go.
You know, I jumped out in the air, just as I heard that fire truck blow.

Now you done seen one fire truck, boy, you done seen them all.
You done seen one fire truck, boy, you done seen them all.
Every time you try to jump, they come along and they mess up your fall.

Now the police came along; he busted me in the jaw.
Yes, the police came along, busted me in the jaw.
Took me down to the station, said, "Boy, you know, jumping is against the law."

You know the shrink, he came in, said, "Boy, what's wrong with you?"
The shrink, he came in, said, "Boy, what's wrong with you?"
"I just can't get myself together, doc, no matter what I try to do."

Now life ain't worth living, living ain't worth life.
They nailed me down to a table, gave me a rusty knife.
I said I'm gonna go to Copenhagen, go to Copenhagen town.
I'm gonna find myself a bridge where there ain't no fire trucks 'round.


I've pasted them from my own website, "Patrick Sky Chords and Lyrics Collection".
