D
Second Street and Broadway
GD
Sittin'' in a doorway, head held in his hands
E7AA7
Looked to all the world, like he was prayin''
Foot wrapped in an old rag, bottle in a brown bag
I saw him try to stand
Then I heard the words that he was sayin''
ChorusDGD
He said, Come on Carrie, carry me a little farther
AA7
Come on Carrie, carry me one more mile
D
I don''t know where it''s leadin'' to
GE7
But, I know I can make it if I lean on you
DG
So, come on Carrie, carry me a little
DG
I carried you, now carry me a little
DGDGDG
Come on Carrie, carry me a little while
Well he struggled to his feet, and staggered down the street
To the window of a five and dime
Stood and laughed a while, at his reflection
And then I heard him shoutin'', somethin'' ''bout a mountain
He could surely climb
If she was only there to point the right direction
