| Ashes come Ashes, Dust to Dust words by Woody Guthrie, Music by Hans-Eckardt Wenzel Ashes to ashes and dust come dust, display me a woman that a man have the right to trust. Line on the desert and fish in the sea, A rattlesnake mama make a sucker out of me. O phone call me exactly how long have to I need to wait?Can I get you now or should I hesitate? Bacon come bacon and beans come beans, I gained a cornbread mama in brand-new Orleans. Turtle in the rivers, alligators in the swamp, A Louisiana mama keeps a man on the jump. O call me just how long need to I have to wait... It"s beer come beer and also ale to ale,I obtained a L.A. Mama in the Frisco Jail. Gold in the mountains, copper in the hills, They captured my gal with a fourty gallon still. O tell me exactly how long must I have to wait... Ham to ham and also eggs to egg If ns don"t obtain a pension I"ll need to beg. There"s a most crooked politician men; It would certainly be all ideal if the wasn"t because that them. O tell me how long have to I have to wait... I make the efforts to acquire a job everywhere town; seven hundred areas they turn me down. Lock told me six weeks I can get relief, yet I ain"t gained a bite to eat. O tell me exactly how long need to I need to wait...  | Ticky Tock Hans Eckard Wenzel |
