Rain on my Sunday shoes
|
Pick up the daily news
|
Looks like tomorrows blues
|
But its better than none
|
|
Call on the telephone
|
knowin' that he's not home
|
I'll put on the Rollin' Stones
|
And I can have me some fun
|
|
Start up a flight of stairs
|
Stand up and comb your hair
|
Try not to change things
|
More than you can withstand
|
|
Get into something new
|
That's made for a year or two
|
Pick up the pieces
|
Where you think they might land
|
|
Everyday goes
|
Another days gone
|
Hate to say so but I'm getting older
|
Day by day
|
|
Take off all your clothes
|
Stand up and wipe your nose
|
Cry for your daddy
|
Who died so long ago
|
|
Jump on another plane
|
Today it's all the same
|
You can catch me in Boston
|
'Cause that's how it goes
|
|
I'm here in apartment 21
|
Stop by and have some fun
|
Say how ya doin', ya old son of a gun
|
|
Look at a photograph
|
Lord, don't it make you laugh
|
For all these changes
|
What have you done?
|
|
La la la, la la la, la la la la
|
Lla la la la, la la la, la la la la
|
La la la, la la la, la la la la
|
La la la la, la la la, la la la la
|
|
Sit down and write a song
|
Wait till the days grow long
|
And wait fir the autumn wind
|
To blow me away
|
|
La la la, la la la, la la la la
|
Lla la la la, la la la, la la la la
|
La la la, la la la, la la la la
|
La la la la, la la la, la la la la
|
(repeat)
