Look on down that long and lonesome road
Check on down that long and lonesome road
That crazy o'clock yeah, time is moving much too slow
Gotta find my place, don't see no friendly face
Gotta find space, don't see no friendly face
I lost my baby and it's been a wild few days
I got them scarecrow blues, nothing but sticks and hay
I got them scarecrow blues, yeah I got them all the same
You'll pass me on by yeah, just listen to the people say
You build me up & I scare the kids away
You break me down at the end of harvest day
No pests! No Partners! Just vultures in a sky so grey
I shall ask for brains, instead of a lovely heart
I shall ask for brains, instead of a lonely heart
Tired of that old whiskey when you got a liver made of straw
I got them scarecrow blues, can't be satisfied
I got them scarecrow blues, taking birdies for a ride, yeah
I gotta stay laughing, laugh to keep from crying
