Just the other day I heard my friend say. Life was oh so bad, love was all he had. You know all day long I sing sad songs. Got the blues feel. Things no doctor can heal.
New York City is a thousand miles away. And if you ask me, I'll tell you that's OK. Now I'm not trying to put the big apple down. 'Cause they don't need a man like me in town.
Now I'll tell you plainly, baby, what a plan to do. Say, I may be crazy, woman, but I ain't no fool. Your daddy's rich, mama, and you're overdue. but I ain't the one, baby, been messin' with you.
