Counting Crows - Mean Jumper Blues Acoustic Demo Lyrics

Mean Jumper Blues (acoustic demo)

I feel like jumping through the keyhole in your door
I feel like jumping through the keyhole in your door
If you jump this one time, baby
You won't jump no more

Well I feel like fallin' from a treetop to the ground
I feel like fallin' from a treetop to the ground
My rider she got a mean joker
And he don't allow me around, no

I go there early in the mornin'
And I go there late at night
I go there early in in the mornin'
And I go there late at night
I don't care how late I go there, oh
He never never turns out the light

Listen, you know
I believe he's alookin' for me
He's up all hours of the night
Hey! I believe he's lookin' for me
He's up all hours of the night
She used to be my rider, oh
And he ain't treatin' her right
Uh and I said you know she used to be my rider
And he ain't treatin' her right

I met this joker one mornin'
He was out on the edge of town
I met this joker one mornin'
And he was out on the edge of town
I had to beg and plead
Just to keep him, from blowin' me down
Oh, I got the mean jumper blues, oh
Got the mean jumper blues
Oh, got them mean jumper blues

I feel like jumpin' through the keyhole in your door
I feel like jumpin' through the keyhole in your door
If you jump this one time, baby, yeah
You won't jump no more
I said, I said if you ju-ju-just jump this one time, baby, yeah
You won't jump no more
Hey, hey yeah! I swear if you just jump this one time, baby
Please, please just jump this one time baby, yeah!
Please, please just jump this one time baby, yeah!
You won't jump no more

I got the mean jumper blues
I said I got the mean jumper blues, yeah
Got them mean jumpers blues
