Go out yonder, peace in the valley |
|
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley |
|
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in |
|
Has anybody seen my lady |
|
This living alone will drive me crazy |
|
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in |
|
Im gonna go down by the wa - ter |
|
But I aint gonna jump in, no, no |
|
Ill just be looking for my mak - er |
|
And I hear that thats where shes been? oh! |
|
Out of nine lives, I spent seven |
|
Now, how in the world do you get to heaven |
|
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in |
|
I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse |
|
For the crime of having no dough |
|
Now here I am back out on the street |
|
For the crime of having nowhere to go |
|
Save your neck or save your brother |
|
Looks like its one or the other |
|
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in |
|
Now two young kids might start a ruckus |
|
You know they feel you trying to shuck us |
|
Oh, you dont know the shape Im in |
