Papa Ain't Salty Lyrics


Give me a call when yer strung out or when you're bored
Been so long and heavy but now you think I'm ready
Lean on me, lean on me, give it a try, it won't hurt
Leave it with the papers and the capers and the dirtHad a friend who died today, got a long distance call
Who knows what or when or how but what I'd do to see his face now
Lean on me, lean on me, wham bam, Doug Sahm
Get my brains from a garden plantYou ain't got the truth in the line
Stick with the ones who never, get put out by the fireI never was one for pictures, yeah, you could hang up on the wall
Start 'em up here in my head, wait for them to fall
Let's go get wrong, real real gone
Raise a toast to the Polaroid ghost and let some water fall
You ain't got the truth in the line
Stick with the ones who never, get put out by the fire

Douglas Wayne Sahm (November 6, 1941 – November 18, 1999), was a musician from Texas. Born in San Antonio, Texas, he was a child prodigy in country music, but became a significant figure in blues, rock and other genres. Today Sahm is considered one of the most important figures in what is identified as tex-mex. He was the founder and leader of the 1960s hippie band The Sir Douglas Quintet, and later with Augie Meyers, Freddy Fender and Flaco Jimenez - The Texas Tornados. Sahm was proficient on dozens of musical instruments and was a lifelong baseball fan.
