My feet are so tired, my brain is so wired
Are you looking at me and thinking of somebody else?
An' here I sit so patiently;
Waiting to find out what price;
You have to pay to get out of;
Going through all these things twice.
I wish that for just one time;
You could stand inside my shoes;
You'd know what a drag it is;
To see you
Boys in the street beginning to play;
Girls like birds flying away
How long can I stay in this nowhere café
I see nothing to be gained by any explanation;
There are no words that need to be said
Ever since you walked right in, the circle's been complete
I want to thank You, Lord,;
I just want to thank You, Lord,;
Thank You, Lord.
Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too;
Don't get up gentlemen, I'm only passing through
Love is so simple, to quote a phrase,;
You've known it all the time, I'm learnin' it these days.
I'm hungry and I'm irritable;
And I'm tired of this bag of tricks.;
At one time there was nothing wrong with me;
That you could not fix.
I thought somehow that I would be spared this fate
Any day now, any day now,;
I shall be released.
I been hangin’ on threads
I been playin’ it straight
Now, I’ve just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain;
Pay for your ticket and don't complain
people don’t live or die, people just float
Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed;
Dignity never been photographed
Scorpio Sphinx in a calico dress
My love for her is taking such a long time to die
I'm in love with a woman who don't even appeal to me
The treasure can't be found by men who search
Do you know where we're headin'?;
Lincoln County Road or Armageddon?
I'll remember you;
At the end of the trail,;
I had so much left to do,;
I had so little time to fail.
She knows there's no success like failure;
And that failure's no success at all.
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
They got him on conspiracy, they were never sure who with.
Turn your back, wash your hands,;
There's always someone who understands
Ring them bells, for the time that flies,;
For the child that cries;
When innocence dies.
