-Words and Music by Lewis DeWitt |
|
I keep hearin' you're concerned about my happiness |
|
But all that thought you're givin' me is conscience I guess |
|
If I was walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none |
|
While you 'n' your friends are worried about me I'm havin' lots of fun |
|
CHORUS |
|
Countin' flowers on the wall |
|
That don't bother me at all |
|
Playin' solitaire till dawn with a deck of fifty-one |
|
Smokin' cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo |
|
Now don't tell me I've nothin' to do |
|
Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town |
|
As long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down |
|
So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine |
|
You can always find me here, I'm havin' quite a time |
|
CHORUS |
|
It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright |
|
Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light |
|
And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete |
|
So I must go back to my room and make my day complete |
|
CHORUS |
|
Don't tell me I've nothin' to do |
