Go out yonder, peace in the valley |
|
Come back home, have to rumble in the alley |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
Anybody seen my baby? |
|
Livin' alone sure drive me crazy |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
I'm goin' down to river |
|
But I ain't gonna jump in, |
|
I'll be there lookin' for my maker |
|
'Cause I seen that's where she's been Lord! |
|
Out of nine lives, I spent seven |
|
How in the world do I get to Heaven? |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse |
|
For the crime of having no dough |
|
Here I am now back out on the street |
|
For the crime of having nowhere to go |
|
Save your neck or save your brother |
|
These days you know it's one or the other |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
Go out yonder, peace in the valley |
|
Come back home, have to rumble in the alley |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in |
|
The shape I'm in, the shape I'm in |
