lyrics

My baby he had big eyes for the city
With the golden hills that dip into the bay
But that city’s greed is hungrier than money
And it slowly stole my baby’s soul away

Extra, extra
Have you heard the news?
My man he’s got deep pockets now
He done lost those poor boy blues

Read all about it
His war’s been won
His down and broke and brokedown days are done

His leaving trunk was packed and shipped to Portland
I guess the grass is always greener in the rain
Now headlines match the name upon his paycheck
Pacific breeze has gone and blown his blues away

Extra, extra
Have you heard the news?
My man he’s got deep pockets now
He done lost those poor boy blues

Read all about it
His war’s been won
His down and broke and brokedown days are done
But lonely, broken, and downhearted
Is where the words to my truest songs will hide
So when my honey packed to up leave that city
I wasn't there to travel by his side

Extra, extra
Have you heard the news?
My man he’s got deep pockets now
He done lost those poor boy blues

Read all about it
His war’s been won
His down and broke and brokedown days are done
