lyrics

Asked you for a dime
Then you came with all this silver
Asked you to be quite
Then you wrote a poem for me

I believe I’d rather be mistaken
I’d pay you back if you’d not write a note for me

Came home with diamonds
You’d been working like a dog
Came home a fine, fine man
Kept it all from you

I believe I know for sure I told her
I believe that I am short of love

If you’d rather be
An island in the sea
Where you’d like to be
Just take me home to sleep, take me home

Some are sweet, some are sour
Some ain’t told within an hour
Some are sweet, some are sweet
Some are sweet, some are sour
Some ain’t told within an hour

Asked you for a dime
Then you came with all this silver
Asked you to be quite
Then you wrote a poem for me
