Well I've been going for a couple of years |
|
And it seems that the answer it is coming quite clear |
|
Oh I don't even know what I am doing here |
|
But I can drive with my eyes closed |
|
And play by ear |
|
And I can sleep beneath the piano |
|
Just like that's my natural home |
|
With all those keys I never feel alone |
|
Yes I can sleep beneath the piano |
|
Just like that's my natural home |
|
With all those keys I never feel alone |
|
I met a girl in a sleepy town down by the sea |
|
She swore she didn't want nothing from me |
|
Now if you ever hear that line boy don't you dare believe |
|
There ain't nothing but deep blues down in that bitter recipe |
|
And when I left town she had those tears in her eyes |
|
But, I ain't one for no emotional goodbyes |
|
So she swam into that bottle like a fish back to its home |
|
Couple more drinks and you don't know she's alone |
|
Yeah she swam into that bottle like a fish back to the sea |
|
Couple more drinks and she forgot all about me |
|
Met a lot of guys a lot tougher than me |
|
It's like it ain't no kinda competition indeed |
|
They say "hey boy have you ever been stabbed before" |
|
I said "not yet, I'm grabbin' my hat and just heading for the door" |
|
I made my way down to that rich side of town |
|
Where everybody's tossin' big words around |
|
But as soon as I turn my back to head downtown |
|
I hear those whispers like rain just fallin' on down |
|
Say he drink like a fish and he gonna fly like a stone |
|
Boy is better off left alone |
|
Say he drink like a fish and he gonna fly like a stone |
|
Boy is better off left alone |
