Shel Silverstein - AlimonyShel Silverstein - Alimony
Work rating: Low


Alimony alimony I work till my fingers are bloody and boney Me oh my oh goodness sake I`m paying for my mistake She calls it alimony alimony yeah you single men may think it`s funny Till one of these days you`re gonna wake and find you`re payin` for your mistake Pom pom I walk around ragged like a low-down bum I can`t afford to weigh myself or buy a stick of gum It`s the same old story with a little more blues in it I`m payin` for it while someone else is usin` it Alimony alimony I thought I bought steak and it was all baloney My heart and back are both about to break from payin` for my mistake yeah [ harmonica ] Yeah I walk around ragged like a low down bum I can`t afford to weigh myself or buy a stick of gum Why it`s the same old story with a little more blues in it I`m payin` for it while someone else is usin` it Alimony alimony thought I bought steak and it was just baloney And every penny that I make goes to payin` for my mistake Oh yeah payin` for my mistake every Wednesday Yeah aw come on baby y`know it`s your mistake too yeah They took all the furniture and everything come on Why maybe we could sorta pitch in and work it out y`know I mean I could get a third job if that`s what you want I mean What about sellin` my blood y`know
