Folk You

Tweet

Absent minded, you think you've me pegged down
Running in circles, like a circus clown.
Broken down and beat up,
dirty elbows rubbed
Turning tables in tired clubs.

Wedged in between romance and abandonment,
Wearing the badge, called humble vagrant.
Finding angels is heaven, the groove in the love.
This is my song, fits me like a glove.

This is what I mean,
Don't make it more than it seems,
I play the chord, pull the strings
Tap the instrument
Oh what bliss it brings!

F o l k y o u.

Folk you very very much,
A way of life, if you think as much

I'm sitting here, not a dime to spare

But rich with light,
Nothing else compares.

I weasel my way through the promised land,

Bow my head, feet in the sand
Stay bundled up, dry my feet
Charm the ladies,
Wrangle the street.
What you do for love, ya know

The price you charge

Let it flow
'Cuz the payoff is large
Fill my tank every 'morn,
The dame beside me, keeping' me warm.

All I need to get through the day,
Write a song or two,
Help pave the way.

F o l k y o u

Folk you very, very, much
don't need the fame, you think I do

Just wanna play my GEEE-TAR, Sing my tunes.
Don't need to be a star,
My fading soon, youth
Music to me;

The only truth.
