Tinkers Blues Lyrics

Sat down on the beggers bench
Figured it was time I rest
Thought about the things that I would do, yeah
If I just had some money Jack's been here for years
He says that he would like a beer
And I know what he means, yeah
Cos he knows what he needs
He's a man with a plan, oh yeah
A man with a plan, oh yeah
A man with a plan, oh yeah

At quarter to two there's a rush for the shop that sells pastry
Lilly just sits there taking it all in, she's rolling a big one
Cos she don't care
She's thinking about time
Cos she don't mind
Thinking about time

Keep on
Don't let no one break yer heart
Move on
Don't let no one let you down

Keep on
Don't let no one break yer heart
Move on
Don't let no one let you down
Martha said she lost her mantra
In a town that didn't matter
But all that repetition got her down

But if we sit for too long
We might just go wrong
She's thinking it over
She's thinking it over
She's thinking it over

If I had a line I'd be thinking of ways to get with it
But I got nothing just a moment to sing about nothing
Frozen in motion
We're frozen in motion
All dead ends and broken hearts
All dead ends and broken hearts

Keep on
Don't let no one break yer heart
Move on
Don't let no one let you down

Keep on
Don't let no one break yer heart
Move on
Don't let no one let you down

Martha said she lost her mantra
In a town that didn't matter

Martha said she lost her mantra
In a town that didn't matter

Martha said she lost her mantra
