I'm Tired Joey Boy Lyrics - Van Morrison

I'm tired joey boy 

While you're out with the sheep 

My life is so troubled 

Now I can't go to sleep 

I would walk myself out 

But the streets are so dark 

I shall wait till the morning 

And walk in the park 

This life is so simple when 

One is at home 

And I'm never complaining 

When there's work to be done 

Oh I'm tired joey boy of the makings of men 

I would like to be cheerful again

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Ambition will take you 

And ride you too far and 

Conservatism bring you to boredom once more 

Sit down by the river 

And watch the stream flow 

Recall all the dreams 

That you once used to know 

The things you've forgotten 

That took you away 

To pastures not greener but meaner 

Love of the simple is all that I need 

I've no time for schism or lovers of greed 

Go up to the mountain, go up to the glen 

When silence will touch you 

And heartbreak will mend.
