Shopping Cart Blues



           More Letters From Paradise
             Shopping Cart Blues
    We have a huge problem here with the homeless. There are shelters, but many refuse to live there. They take to stealing shopping carts for their gear, and it's not a pretty sight. As I reported earlier, our State Rep. Tom Brower, began taking back carts and returning them to identified stores, or smashing them. Big uproar here, he no longer does this. This inspired me to write the following. If you play blues guitar, give it a try. 
               Shopping Cart Blues
           I got the shopping cart blues
               they took it away      
                and I got to say
           I got the shopping cart blues
             I ain't got no home
           this is all that I own
           I got the shopping cart blues
            I ain't done no wrong
          just trying to get along
          I got the shopping cart blues
             Now what can I do?
            maybe you wonder too?
         I got the shopping cart blue
