Matchbox Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm sitting here wondering will a matchbox hold my clothes
Yeah, I'm sitting here wondering will a matchbox hold my clothes
I ain't got no matches but I got a long way to go

[Verse 2]
I'm an ol' poor boy and a long way from home
I'm an ol' poor boy and a long way from home
Guess I'll never be happy, everything I do is wrong, yeah

[Verse 3]
Well, let me be your little dog till your big dog comes
Let me be your little dog till your big dog come
When the big dog gets here, show him what this little puppy done

[Verse 1]
Yeah, I'm sitting here wondering, will a matchbox hold my clothes
Yeah, I'm sitting here wondering, will a matchbox hold my clothes
I ain't got no matches, got a long way to go
Let 'er go boy, go, go

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm sitting here wondering, will a matchbox hold my clothes
Baby, I'm sitting here wondering, will a matchbox hold my clothes
I ain't got no matches, got a long way to go
