Album | A Possible Projection Of The Future |

God helped Moses so I know he wont let me down | |
I’m at the bottom of my ladder | |
And it weren’t no easy way down | |
All the folks that used to be around me | |
You wont find em knockin at my door | |
And you never know who your friends are | |
Til they don’t come round no more, Lord | |
My money ran out last evenin’ | |
My woman she ran out today | |
And no one gives a **** what I’m singing | |
Which makes it even harder to say | |
I’ve worked almost all my lifetime makin music as best I can | |
But you never know who your friends are | |
Til they don’t come round again | |
Now I’m just an old nothin’ with memories of fifty years | |
I started with The Blues Project | |
Spent some time with Blood Sweat & Tears | |
My life was filled with music | |
My heart was drenched in sound | |
And if you go see an old movie | |
You might hear me in the background | |
These old eyes don't see too good no more | |
These days they say that I’m deaf | |
My hands are so soft & wrinkled | |
So let me play you all that I got left, Oh Lord |
