Matchbox (Live at the BBC)

Writer: Carl Perkins; lead vocal: Ringo Starr

I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sittin' here wonderin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I ain't got no matches
Sure got a long way to go

I'm an ol' poor boy, and I
Ain't got no home
I'm an ol' poor boy, and I'm a
Long way from home
And everything I do
Turns out mighty wrong
[Alright, John!]
Ah, yeah

Well, if you don't want my peaches honey
Please don't shake my tree
Well, if you don't want Ringo's peaches honey
Please don't mess around my tree
I've got news for you baby
Leave me here in misery

Well, I'm sittin' here watchin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sittin' here wonderin'
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I ain't got no matches
Sure got a long way to go
