06 Breadbox Over Yonder (Slow Blues)

o o LYRICS BELOW

06 Breadbox Over Yonder - Slow Blues


[Verse 1]

Well, there’s a breadbox over yonder… that’s where my bread used to be

Yeah, a breadbox over yonder… that’s where there was bread you could see

I opened it this morning… not even a moldy slice for me


[Verse 2]

I said, “Hey baby, where’s my sandwich?”

She said, “Jimi, the breads NO MOE”

I said, “Hey baby, where’s my sandwich?”

She say, “Jimi, I got to go to the stow”

So I looked in that breadbox… and it said “ain’t Nobody home!” 


[Verse 3]

If I don’t get some bread pretty soon… I’m gonna lose my mind

Yeah, ain’t no wheat or rye… there’s no bread to find

I got ham, I got cheese, but no bread to combine


[Outro]

Wait a minute, something’s wrong… just ain’t no bread, y’all

Yeah, something’s wrong… the empty bag is flat, not tall

I got the blues so bad… I just can’t make no sandwich at all 


Ain’t no bread over yonder… not even a dinner roll, or a crust…

This be serious baby…
