The Beatles Matchbox Lyrics

PARLOPHONE Records in 1963.
INTRO: A7 A
#1.
I said, I'm sittin' here watchin' a matchbox
holdin' my clothes.
I said, I'm sittin' here wonderin', matchbox
holdin' my clothes.
I ain't got no matches, but I sure got a long
way to go.
#2.
I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a long way from home.
I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a long way from home.
I've never been happy, cause everything I ever did
was wrong.
#3.
Well, If you don't want my peaches honey..please don't
shake my tree.
If you don't want Ringo's peaches honey..please don't
mess around my tree.
I got news for you baby, leave me here in miser..y..
alright.
(INTERLUDE:) A D7 A E7 D7 A
#4.
Well, let me be your little dog, till your big dog comes.
Let me be your little dog, till your big dog comes.
And when your big dog gets here..watch how your puppy dog runs.
OUTRO:
Well, I said, I'm sittin' here watchin' a matchbox holdin'
my clothes.
I said, I'm sittin' here wonderin', matchbox holdin' my clothes.
I ain't got no matches, but I sure got a long way to go.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
