You've got a torn shirt and you're trying to keep it together,
|
You got a head full of ideas, but they're each as light as a feather,
|
You've got a new song, now you're just dying to sing it,
|
But you've forgotten the words, and so you'll just have to wing it
|
But you've got the torn shirt, hanging out and waiting for the party to start
|
You've got your torn shirt, just hanging out and singing the blues.
|
|
You ride the night train and you're looking for a little action,
|
But the girl that you're thinking of, she only thinks you're a distraction
|
She's got her mind set upon the latest fashion,
|
And when she looks at you, her brain it goes into traction,
|
You've got the torn shirt,
|
And you're hanging out and waiting for the party to start,
|
You've got your torn shirt, just hanging out and singing the blues.
|
You've got the torn shirt and you're waiting on delivery of a broken heart
|
You've got your torn shirt but tell me are you old enough to use?
|
|
You're heading on, you're going to write a book,
|
So you head downtown, well just to have a look
|
You see the boys and girls, you know they got it together
|
And if you look too hard, they're going to hit you with the leather
|
You've got the torn shirt etc...
