He was an old broom maker A medicine man On an old boneshaker Back in nineteen thirty-nine No home to go to Just the open road Oxen borne But it never, ever showed Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend He could hold the ocean In the palm of his hand What he calls emotion Let time slip like grains of sand When the music took him To the streets in town He could catch a picture For the price of half-a-crown Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend Now his heart was broken On a wedding day Not a word was spoken 'Cause there was nothing left to say About how he whispered How he went inside And he never kissed her That day he lost his bride Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend Oh, bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend [Instrumental] Raggle-taggle gypsy Raggle-taggle mind That's our world, it saw him As he would not confined It was a touch of emotion That bids his wing Through the lanes bicycled To a henhouse where he lived Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend Bring me that old wristwatch Fix it, broke-down man Trust me, I'm the man On me you can depend On me you can depend On me you can depend
