I'm sitting here watching
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sitting here wondering
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I ain't got no matches
Sure got a long way to go

I'm an ole poor boy, and I
Ain't got no home
I'm an ole 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 sitting here watching
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I said I'm sitting here wondering
Matchbox hole in my clothes
I ain't got no matches
Sure got a long way to go
