Billy Bragg & Wilco - Tea Bag Blues Lyrics
Well, it's awful cold outsideI'm cold at home tonightWalkin' up an' down by my poor selfGod you know this just ain't rightGonna boil myself a tea bagGonna boil myself a tea bagAnd if you moze over my wayI will boil you off a tea bag, tooWell I've come from OklahomaWhere the dust and gravel blowI've got gals with booseleg rotgutBut man I never did learn to knowJust how to boil me off a tea bagHow to simmer up a tea bagAnd if you'll ease over my wayI will boil you off a tea bag, tooI rode the trains and the bussesI rode the roads I rose the blindsHit every kind of bag and satchelI used every bait I could findNever did think about no tea bagNever did see no tea bagBut if you'll ooze over closerYes, I'll boil you off a tea bag tooYes I willI've used beer, and wine, and coffeeButtermilk, sodie, and rumAnd I've rolled them every colorSeen them go before they comeLearnin' how to use a tea bagHow to dip a tea bagIf you'll sneak over my wayI'm gonna strain your little tea bag, tooYeah baby, that's a promiseLearnin' how to dip my tea bagHow to soak up my tea bagAnd I'm up north in New York CitySingin' my lonesome tea bag blues
