Bear's Wharf lyrics
Down by the docks of the city
Blind and dirty, asked me for a dime
A dime for a cup of coffee
I got no dime but I got some time
To hear his story
My name is August west
And I love my pearly baker best, more than my wine
More than my wine, more than my maker
Though he's no friend of mine
Everyone said, "I'd come to no good
I knew I would pearly, believe them"
Half of my life, I spent doin' time
For some other fucker's crime
The other half found me stumblin' 'round
Drunk on Burgundy wine
But I'll get back on my feet someday
The good Lord, Lord willin', if He says, "I may"
I know that the life I'm living's no good
I'll get a new start, live the life I should
I'll get up and fly away
I'll get up and fly away, fly away
Pearly's been true, true to me
"True to my dyin' day", he said
I said to him, I said to him, "I'm sure she's been"
I said to him, "I'm sure she's been true to you"
Got up and wandered, wandered downtown
Nowhere to go but just hang around
I've got a girl, named Bonnie Lee
I know that girl's been true to me
I know she's been
I'm sure she's been true to me, true to me
Down by the docks of the city
Blind and dirty, asked me for a dime
