Committed To Parkview Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

There's a man across the hall who sits staring at the floor 

He thinks he's Hank Williams hear him singing through the door 

There's a girl in 203, who stops by to visit me 

And she talks about her songs and the star that she should be 

There are lots of special people staying in or passing through 

And for one thing or another, committed to Parkview 

 

There's a girl in 307, coming down on thorazine 

And a superstar's ex-drummer trying to kick Benzedrine 

There's a boy just below me who's the son of some well-known 

He was brought in by his mother 'cause his daddy's always gone 

There's a bum from down on Broadway and a few quite well to do's 

Who have withdrawn from the rat race and committed to Parkview 

 

There's a girl who cries above me, loud enough to wake the dead 

They don't know what she has taken that has scrambled up her head 

There's a writer and a singer who has tried and tried and tried 

They just brought him in this morning an attempted suicide 

There are those that never made it, those that did but now are through 

Some came of their own good chosing,some committed to Parkview 

 

They wake us about 6:30, just before the morning meal 

While they're taking blood pressure, they ask us how we feel 

And I always say fantastic there ain't nothing wrong with me 

And then they give me my injection and I go right back to sleep 

The days are kind of foggy and the nights are dreamy too 

But they're taking good care of me, committed to Parkview
