Can’t Take You Nowhere Songtext
von Dave Frishberg
Can’t Take You Nowhere Songtext
You knock back the Schnopps,
You talk back to Cops
You walk in the room and conversation stops
I Can′t take you nowhere, I Can't take you nowhere
You stagger, You sag,
You′re half in the bag,
On glass of beer and you're a total drag
I Can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
I buy 3 or 4
You mooch plenty more
The check comes around and you are out the door
I can′t take you nowhere, I can't take you nowhere
I don′t want to watch you fall on your Face
You're loud and you′re lude
You tend toward the crude
My friend's are disgusted with you attitude
I can′t take you nowhere, I can't take you nowhere
You mumble you moan
You grumble you groan,
You called Honalulu on my telephone
I can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
I hear people say
You won′t go away
You stop by for breakfast and you stay all day
I can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
That's right
Try not to get uptight,
But I can′t take you nowhere
Cause I don't know a place
Where you can show your face
And anyway, I′d just like to say,
So sad to say you must be on your Way
So have a real nice day
But I can't take you nowhere
Cause I don't know a place where you can show your face
And anyway, I′d just like to say,
So sad to say you must be on your way
What a pity to say
So Long
You talk back to Cops
You walk in the room and conversation stops
I Can′t take you nowhere, I Can't take you nowhere
You stagger, You sag,
You′re half in the bag,
On glass of beer and you're a total drag
I Can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
I buy 3 or 4
You mooch plenty more
The check comes around and you are out the door
I can′t take you nowhere, I can't take you nowhere
I don′t want to watch you fall on your Face
You're loud and you′re lude
You tend toward the crude
My friend's are disgusted with you attitude
I can′t take you nowhere, I can't take you nowhere
You mumble you moan
You grumble you groan,
You called Honalulu on my telephone
I can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
I hear people say
You won′t go away
You stop by for breakfast and you stay all day
I can't take you nowhere, I can′t take you nowhere
That's right
Try not to get uptight,
But I can′t take you nowhere
Cause I don't know a place
Where you can show your face
And anyway, I′d just like to say,
So sad to say you must be on your Way
So have a real nice day
But I can't take you nowhere
Cause I don't know a place where you can show your face
And anyway, I′d just like to say,
So sad to say you must be on your way
What a pity to say
So Long
