Tinsley Ellis Pawnbroker Lyrics

My landlord called to tell me
The rent was way past due
But the eagle up and died last month
Only one thing left to do
I'll see my pawnbroker
Gonna see him today
Take care of my guitar
'Cos I'll be back again some day
Collected unemployment
Swore I couldn't find a job
Bit too busy holding up this bar stool
When the bill collector came to call
I saw my pawnbroker Got his ticket in my hand
Now a lot of folks don't know him
But the bluesman understands
What an unexpected pleasure
[When you first come] and let me hold the door
I'll go and get my guitar
And I'll play these blues some more
I'll see that pawnbroker
And I'll be smiling today
And when I get my guitar
This is what I'm gonna play
Yeah, hey, wooo
