Artist/Band: Gerry Rafferty
Lyrics for Song: Mattie's Rag
Lyrics for Album: City To City [1978]



Oh, Mattie open up the door

That's right I'm home again

You've got a big surprise in store

Turn round and count to ten



Wait til you see what I got you

Well, you'll say it's a magic thing

It's like an old mandolin man

You just wind him up and he'll start to sing



I've been away for quite a while

And I want to hear all your news

Speak to me, let me see you smile

Cause I've had those homesick blues



When I go down to that city

I just don't know wrong from right

When I go back to you Mattie

Well, you make me see the light



Love is a singular thing

It can take you up or bring you down

Yes, love is a song that I sing

So come on now Mattie listen to the sound



When you grow up, we'll sit and talk

Of how things used to be

I'll be a grand old man of rock with all these memories
