I’m Not Dead
woke up this morning found that I’m not dead
woke up this morning found that I’m not dead
my good old days must be right ahead
clouds are moving winds begun to blow
clouds are moving winds begun to blow
might be sunny somewhere I don’t know
Shuffled the cards and dealt a hand
taking nickels from the boys in the band
this road trip’s taking longer than I thought
I’m always in the train station when my ship comes into port
grass needs mowin, weeds are getting tall
grass needs mowin, weeds are getting tall
I’ll disappear entirely when I fall
grocery store stopped selling my favorite cheese
grocery store stopped selling my favorite cheese
I’d ask ’em why but I ain’t gettin on my knees
she took my money to pay the fare
then acted like I wasn’t even there
my socks don’t match and I’m wearing high-heeled shoes
pocket’s got a hole I got nothing to lose
butter ain’t the only thing to churn
butter ain’t the only thing to churn
my eyes are ringin my ears are starting to burn
radio station’s fading in and out
radio station’s fading in and out
that fool doesn’t know what he’s talking about
that look you’ve got’s a fine how-do-you-do
got a box of matches down in my shoe
I taught myself to read when I was three years old
keep using your head you’ll wind up left out in the cold
woke up this morning found that I’m not dead
woke up this morning found that I’m not dead
my good old days must be right ahead
Get Up and Go
If you’re leaving
get up and go
I won’t be grieving
just so you know
I stopped believing
long time ago
so if you’re leaving
get up and go
I don’t need you
Anymore
Won’t impede you
that’s for sure
Let me lead you
to the door
Cause I don’t need you
anymore
If you can get
something better for you
Someone who’ll forget
when you’re untrue
I won’t be upset
I’m glad to be through
So go see if you can get
something better for you
If you’re leaving
get up and go
I won’t be grieving
just so you know
I stopped believing
long time ago
so if you’re leaving
get up and go
Look My Way
It’s warm in the park
Where I wait for you
Knowing you’ll come
Hoping you’ll come
The quiet in the park
Reminds me of you
You don’t have to speak
There’s no need to speak
Waiting for you
Is the best part of my day
Even though I know
You won’t look my way
Alone in the park
I wait for you
Hoping you’ll come
Knowing you’ll come
Mexican Food
I love Mexican food
really hits the spot
I love Mexican food
I want it burning hot
chilequiles, a quesadilla
or just rice and beans
juice of a lime and pickled jalapeƱos
you’ll see what I mean
I love Mexican food
really hits the spot
I love Mexican food
I want it burning hot
chicken mole and corn tortillas
albondigas chipotle
pico de gallo and chiles rellenos
what more can I say?
I love Mexican food
really hits the spot
I love Mexican food
I want it burning hot
I want it burning hot
I want it burning h-o-o-o-o-o-t
ouch!
Just a Couple of Kids
C F G
you were a little bit older
and a whole lot bigger than me
a little more fun more popular than I’ll ever be
only thing you cared about was a football score
‘fore the bell finished ringing you’d be out the door
to rehearsal or practice whatever you call it
that Friday I was walking home from school
you and your buddies thought that it would be cool
to knock me down and make off with my wallet
made fun of my girlfriend threw her picture away
chased me all the way home and buddy right to this day
there’s a scar inside of me I’ve always kept carefully hid
when you knocked me down it didn’t leave a mark
so you’ll never know there’s a pain in my heart
to think that anybody would treat me the way that you did
sometimes I pretend you grew up all right
but once in a while I lay awake at night
and try to tell myself
that we were just a couple of kids
you were a little bit older
and a whole lot bigger than me
I had a really hard time as a kid, in school, at home, pretty much anywhere; there was always someone bigger and harder than me and it took me half a century to figure out how to stay out of their way.
