[00:00.941] | Cockeyed Optimist (Guitar Version) - Nancy Sinatra/Billy Strange |
[00:16.61] | When the sky is a bright canary yellow |
[00:23.168] | I forget every cloud I've ever seen |
[00:29.288] | So they call me a cockeyed optimist |
[00:34.906] | Immature and incurably green |
[00:41.786] | I have heard people rant and rave and bellow |
[00:47.646] | That we're done and we might as well be dead |
[00:54.912] | But I'm only a cockeyed optimist |
[00:59.141] | And I can't get it into my head |
[01:06.871] | Now I hear the human race is falling on its face |
[01:11.610] | And hasn't very far to go |
[01:16.359] | But every whippoorwill is selling me a bill |
[01:22.227] | And telling me just ain't so |
[01:28.17] | I could say life is just a bowl of Jello |
[01:34.327] | And appear more intelligent and smart |
[01:41.885] | But I'm stuck like a d**e with a thing called hope |
[01:48.84] | And I can't get it out of my heart |
[01:59.413] | Not this heart |
