My Clementine, her kisses are sweeter than fortified wine
But she left me for an old wife-beater whose theater was darker than mine
So come out, put on your breadbag socks
'Cause it's raining anchors and engine blocks
We're gonna get drunk down by the phosphate mine
The bootlegger's daughter lives on a hill
She ain't good-looking but I love her still
It's so far out to the chicken shack
You ride a prеgnant mare so you can get back
I brought the brеwer a bag of malt
If I don't get drunk, it's the brewer's fault
I won't go to topless bars no more
They make you take your shirt off at the door
My Clementine, her kisses are sweeter than fortified wine
But she left me for an old wife-beater whose theater was darker than mine
So come out, put on your breadbag socks
'Cause it's raining anchors and engine blocks
We're gonna get drunk down by the phosphate mine
Mama, I'm so tired
I wanna drift on down to sleep
On the seashells in the deep
Oh, pretty mama, when I die
Cut a big fat onion to make somebody cry
My Clementine, her kisses are sweeter than fortified wine
But she left me for an old wife-beater whose theater was darker than mine
So come out, put on your breadbag socks
'Cause it's raining anchors and engine blocks
We're gonna get drunk down by the phosphate mine
Yeah, we're gonna get drunk down by the phosphate mine
