that's a dark pocket that's the one that always seems to sag
that's a dark draw in my dresser that's a dark pocket in my bag
you offer me some coffee i think i'll take and eat the rag
that's a dark draw in my dresser that's a dark pocket up my bag
i think i'm gonna need a little time away from you
that's a dark pocket that's where i keeps what's i need to buy
that's a dark shelf in my closet that's a dark spot on my mind
i know i ain't been easy you never had no cause to brag
just stay out of that one dark pocket, stay out of my duffel bag
i think you're gonna want a little time away from me
that's a dark pocket that's a mobile prying jack
that's a dark box in the attic that's dark pocket in my bag
oh baby i surrender just let me get out my white flag
it's in the top drawer of my dresser or the dark pocket of my bag
i think i'm gonna need a little time away from you
you can say what you want and i can do what i need to do
that's a dark pocket
keep out
