Frankie D. said he got it. Straight from Roger Miller. Life's just like takin' candy. From a gorilla. I started thinkin' man. This ain't so tough. That's about the time.
I've smeared my heart on my sleeve. I've tagged my name on the wall. It's probably time for me to leave. Actin' big and talkin' small. . I've tracked blood in on the floor.
Hooray for the drinkin' warm red wine. On a day both bright and fair. Hooray for the layin' and playin' a tune. On the sunlight through your hair, your hair.
Oh the beautiful red-haired. Madonna with child. Sat on the curb wearin' a smile. That doubled up the years. And trebled the miles. And comforts the babe.
I ain't lookin' for trouble. I can't stay here tonight. I got to leave here on the double. If I want to see the morning light. Don't need no pistol for the tickets.
All my life I'd never been a lucky man. Saw the back of my daddy's hand. Lost your momma to the promised land. . In my time I'd never had a thing that's mine.
I'm the center of attention in this bar room. 'Cause I've got the biggest heartache of the year. And each night those swingin` doors reach out to me and draw me in.

Well high school got me educated. Still when I graduated. I didn't have a clue. . Did a stand in the Navy. They did they're best to break me. Somehow I made it through.

Oh, rock by, my Saro Jane. Rock by my Saro Jane. Nothin' to do but sit around and sing. Rock by, my Saro Jane. . Now, Ive got a gal whos sweet to me. She lives down in Tennessee, oh Saro Jane.
I'd like to see my native home the lofty trees and golden sand. The rugged hills all crowded round my mother's voice how sweet would sound. Sometimes I dream of home and friends my dreams are false my heart's with them.
There's a cabin in the pines in the hills of Caroline. And a blue eyed girl is waiting there for me. I'll be going back some day and from her I'll never stray.
Oh, little girl of mine in Tennessee. I know she's waiting there for me. Someday I'll settle down in that little country town. With that little girl of mine in Tennessee.
Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee. Help me find the party try to get in touch with me. She could not leave her number but I know who placed the call.
Hey Mr Tambourine man play a song for me. I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey Mr Tambourine man play a song for me. In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
