Traction Blues

The coffee at the hospital

Was a low-down nasty sludge

I got 19 compound fractures and

I'm talking to the judge

And if that judge don't bust you,

I'll take you to the one that will



'cause i would not be in traction if i did not fall in love



Call me a dumbell, call me a spoiled slug,

I tumbled down your staircase,

And i'm taking you to court.

If that court don't bust you, mama,

I'll take you to the one that will



'cause i would not be in traction if i did not fall in love



(oh no!)



I would not be on my feet,

I swear by god above.

My arm and first 3 fingers

Are in a plaster glove



I would not be in traction if i did not fall in love



If that cop don't bust you baby,

I'll take you to the one that will.



'cause i would not be in traction if i did not fall in love



The coffee at the hospital

Was a low-down nasty sludge

I got 19 compound fractures, baby

Talkin' to the judge

If that judge don't bust you, mama

I'll take you to the one that will



But i would not be in traction if i did not fall in love
