Adam Green
"Crackhouse Blues"

Johnny please don't tell the people
bout the bluebirds flight
Wasting education on a Tuesday
night
Yes, you are my pussy, you're just
being mean
Covering up the muscle in your
Jordash jeans

Stick up the phone, who is it?
Someone has come to visit
Everybody do the hokey pokey, do
the crackhouse blues!

Do the mashed potato till your feet
glow green
Got to sweep the floor to keep the
crackhouse clean
Took me to the movies, but the
doctor said
Leave him to get beaten by the black
eyed meds

Stick up the phone, who is it?
Someone has come to visit
Everybody do the hokey pokey, do
the crackhouse blues!

Now the captain ran for cover when
the steamboats crashed
Driving off the bridges cause they got
no class
Barbara's got my number, now I've
got to run
Pizzas to deliver in the crackhouse
slum, you know...

Sometimes when the night gets hot
I search around for the crack I lost
I wouldn't expect for you to notice me
I would not expect you to say
'Johnny!'

Do the mashed potato till your feet
glow green
Got to sweep the floor to keep the
crackhouse clean
Took me to the movies, but the
doctor said
Leave him to get beaten by the black
eyed meds

Stick up the phone like we do
Someone has come to see you
