dr hook the medicine show - carry me, carrie lyrics
(shel silverstein)
second street and broadway
sitting in a door way
head held in his hands
looked to all the world like he was praying
foot wrapped in an old rag
bottle in a brown bag
i saw him try to stand
then i heard the words that he was saying
he said come on carrie, carry me a little farther
come on carrie, carry me one more mile
i don’t know where it’s leading to
but i know i can make it if i lean on you
so come on carrie, carry me a little
i carried you, now carry me a little
come on carrie, carry me a little while
well he struggled to his feet
and staggered down the street
to the window of the five-and-dime
he stood and laughed a while at his reflection
and then i heard him shoutin’
something about a mountain
he could surely climb, if she was only there to point the right direction
but she ain’t no, no ain’t no
he said come on carrie, carry me a little farther
come on carrie, carry me one more mile
i don’t know where it’s leading to
but i know i can make it if i lean on you
so come on carrie, carry me a little
i carried you, now carry me a little
come on carrie, carry me a little while……
