Shape I'm In Lyrics - Stuart Marty

Go down yonder, peace in the valley 

Come downtown, have a rumble in the alley 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in 

Has anybody seen my baby? 

This livin' alone will drive you crazy 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in 

I'm gonna go down to the river 

But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no 

I'll just be looking for my baby 

And I hear that's where she's been, oh 

Out of nine lives, I've spent seven 

Working it day by day, trying to get to heaven 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in 

I've just spent sixty days in the jailhouse 

For having the crime of having no dough 

Here I am back out on the street 

With the crime of having nowhere to go 

Save your neck, save your brother 

Looks like it's one or the other 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in 

Save your neck, save your brother 

Looks like it's one or the other 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in 

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
