To make this story even longer |
|
Life began to cut me down to size |
|
Down to size |
|
Things got tough and they got tougher |
|
The California sun had burned me blind |
|
Made me blind, so blind, yeah |
|
Some of us are hard of hearing |
|
There I was nearing 35, 35 |
|
All the clubs that used to pay me |
|
Now began to say they got no time |
|
How would I survive? Oh |
|
1, 2, 3, 4 |
|
1, 2, 3, 4 |
|
1, 2, 3, 4 |
|
With a host of weekend warriors dancing in the underground |
|
Someone stole my guitar and made it out of tinsel town |
|
Surrounded by rejecters and bill collectors circling all around |
|
The girl I loved went off and got married to a millionaire |
|
For fifty dollars I'd play five hours in the desert air |
|
Some of us have to hit bottom before we'll ever see above the ground |
