thirteen days

jj cale

thirteen days on a gig in the south

we've got enough dope to keep us all around

we've got two girls dancin' to bring in a crowd

a sound man to mix us

make us sound loud

sometimes we make money

sometimes i don't know

there's thirteen days with five to go

birmingham

mobile

and up to baton rouge

we're smokin' cigarettes and reefer

drinkin' coffee and booze

saw the sun go down in atlanta

come up in new orleans

i got to know a waitress

i tried to get in her jeans

sometimes we make money

sometimes i don't know

there's thirteen days with five to go

migrant worker is the name of this band

if we're ever in your town

come see us if you can

yeah

we been to california

we been to new york

some take to the magazines

some take to dope

sometimes we make money

sometimes i don't know

thirteen days with five to go
