Artist/Band: Tom T. Hall
Lyrics for Song: All You Want When You Please
Lyrics for Album: I Witness Life [Mercury] [1970]



(Tom T. Hall)



"...is a song about a man who goes from prosperity in all things

to poverty in all things."



I'm sittin' here lookin' at some mighty hard times

Money ain't growing on trees

A little while ago I was rollin' in dough

Singin' all you want when you please.



All you want when you please girls

All you want when you please.



The wind blows up this road all summer

In the evening it cools one and all

If you like a good breeze you can have all you please

If you don't get blown away in the fall.



All you want when you please girls

All you want when you please.



--- Instrumental ---



My money's all gone and my breeze died down

My bloom of youth's gone to seed

I sit here and cry for the days all gone by

When I sang all you want when you please.



All you want when you please girls

All you want when you please.



Well, the meat's all lean and the bread's all done

And the cook rides a big white horse

You just come like you look and if you get your picture took

You can tell 'em you was at the Mardi Gras.



All you want when you please girls

All you want when you please...
