Testo di 'Junko Partner' di Dr. John

Down the road come junko partner
Lord, he was loaded as can be
Lord, he was knocked down, knocked down loaded
You know he wobbled all over the street

Singin’ six months ain’t no sentence
Lord, you know one year ain’t no time
They got boys on the ponderosa
Serving nine to ninety-nine.

If i had one million dollars
Just one million, to call my own
I’d buy the land around the parish prison
And i’d grow me a big mootie farm.

Once i had plenty of money
I had good friends all over town
Now i burnt up my last money
Even my jonky partners have put me down

I got a woman in the parish
And another in the house of d
And another in st. gabriel’s
Doin’ a li’l time for me

Give me a little whiskey
When i get a little frisky
It’s a mighty good drink
When you get a little dry
Give me reefer
When i get a little sickly
But give me a little heaven [heroin]
Before i die.

Down the road come junko partner
Lord, he was loaded as can be
Lord, he was knocked down, knocked down loaded
And he sang this dope-fiend song to me
