Harry Rag:The Kinks.
Album - Something Else - 1967.
(A Harry Rag is a 'roll your own' cigarette.)
#1.
CmAh, Tom is young and Tom is bold, BbTom is as bold
as a knight of old.
but whenCmever he gets into a Bbbit of a jam, there's Gnothing
he won't do to get a CmHarry Rag.
CHORUS:
CmHarry Rag! Harry Rag! BbDo anything just to get a Harry Rag.
And he Cmcurses himself for the Bblife he's led,
and Grolls himself a Harry Rag, and Cmputs himself to bed.
#2.
CmAh, Tom's old Ma is a dyin' lass, Bbsoon they reckon she'll
be pushin' up the grass.
And her Cmbones might ache and her Bbskin might sag,
Gstill she's got the strength to have a CmHarry Rag.
CHORUS:
CmHarry Rag! Harry Rag! BbDo anything just to get a Harry Rag.
And she Cmcurses herself for the Bblife she's led,
and Grolls herself a Harry Rag, and Cmputs herself to bed.
#3.
CmAh, bless you taxman, bless you all, you Bbmay take some
but you'll never take it all.
But if CmI give it all, I Bbwon't feel sad,
as Glong as I've got enough to Cmbuy a Harry Rag.
CHORUS:
CmHarry Rag! Harry Rag! BbDo anything just to get a Harry Rag.
And I Cmcurse myself for the Bblife I've led,
and I Groll myself a Harry Rag, and Cmput myself to bed.
#4.
CmAh, the smart young ladies of the land, Bbcan't relax without
a Harry in their hand.
And they Cmlight one up and they Bbboast and brag,
Gso content because they Cmgot a Harry Rag.
CHORUS:
CmHarry Rag! Harry Rag! BbDo anything just to get a Harry Rag.
And they Cmcurse themselves for the Bblife they've led,
and they Groll themselves a Harry Rag, and Cmput themselves to bed.
CHORUS:
CmHarry Rag! Harry Rag! BbDo anything just to get a Harry Rag.
And I Cmcurse myself for the Bblife I've led,
Gand I roll myself a Harry Rag, and Cmput myself to bed.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
