作曲：

Hey look out for my glass up there man

That's my drink man

That's my drink alright

Make it a double or eh

Somebody has to sing

Some body will sing

Somebody will sing right

I don't know)

Y'all pass me that bottle

And I'll sing you all a real song

Yeah

Let me get my key ahum

Well I'm looking through Harlem

My stomach squeal just a little more

A stagecoach full of feathers and footprints

Pulls up to my soap box door

Now a lady with a pearl handled necktie

Tied to the driver's fence

Breathes in my face

Bourbon and coke possessed words

& "Haven't I seen you somewhere in hell

Or was it just an accident"

You know how I felt then and so:)

Before I could ask

"was it the East or West side"

My feet they howled in pain

The wheels of a bandwagon cut very deep

But not as deep in my mind as the rain

And as they pulled away I could see her words

Stagger and fall on my muddy tent

Well I picked them up brushed them off

To see what they say

And you wouldn't believe:

`Come around to my room

With the tooth in the middle

And bring along the bottle and a president'

And eh sometimes it's not so easy baby

Especially when your only friend

Talks sees looks and feels like you

And you do just the same as him

Gets very lonely up this road baby)

Yeah hmmm yeah)

Got more to say)

Well I'm riding through LA huh)

On a bicycle built for fools

And I seen one of my old buddies

And he say

"you don't look the way you usually do"

I say "well some people look like a coin-box"

He say "look like you ain't got no coins to spare"

And I laid back and

I thought to myself and I said this:

I just picked up my pride

From underneath the pay phone

And combed this breath right out of my hair

And sometimes it's not so easy

Especially when your only friend

Talk sees looks and feels like you

And you do just the same as him

I just got out of a Scandinavian jail

And I'm on my way straight home to you

But I feel so dizzy I take a quick look in the mirror

To make sure my friend's here with me too

And you know good well I don't drink coffee

So you fill my cup full of sand

And the frozen tea leaves on the bottom

Sharing lipstick around the broken edge

And my coat that you let your dog lay by the fire on

And your cat he attacked me from his pill-box ledge

And I thought you were my friend too

Man my shadow comes in line before you

I'm finding out that it's eh not so easy

Specially when your only friend

Talks looks sees and feels like you

And you do the same just like him

Lord it's so lonely here hmmm yeah)

Yeah

Pass me that bottle over there)

Yeah yeah okay
