I began writing this song in 1971 and only had the chorus, until I remembered it last month.........So, I figured I would finish it. Back in'71, things were kinda tough for me, my wife and my new daughter. Clinton was our landlord and didn't like ANY excuses for not paying him on time....So...Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

Clinton Jones came today He came for rent, I couldn't pay He said "Hey Boy, you better hit the door" 'Cause you ain't welcome around here no more Well, Clinton Jones came today He came for rent, I couldn't pay He said "Hey Boy, you better hit the door" 'Cause you ain't welcome around here no more Pointy black boots and a cowboy hat He wants to know where his money's at He said "Hey boy, you better hit the door... 'Cause you ain't welcome 'round here no more" 50 Bucks a month, for a 3 room flat Boots on the steps, Hey, where's my money at? I said Hey Clint, I'm tryin' my best So, here's 10 bucks boy and I'll get the rest Well he grabbed my shirt and drug me out the door Into the yard, sayin' Boy I need more 10 lousy bucks, ain't gonna get 'er done I need more money sonny, you better run Well I hit him once and I hit him again He began to bleed, so I hit him again I said Hey Clint, you can't intimidate me I'll get your money sonny, just wait and see Oh, Clinton Jones came today He came for rent, I couldn't pay He said my friend, you're gonna have to leave And now my wife and child grieve Well, Clinton Jones came today He came for rent, I couldn't pay He said "Hey Boy, you better hit the door" 'Cause you ain't welcome around here no more He said "Hey Boy, you better hit the door" 'Cause you ain't welcome around here no more x
