The Man in the Bed |
| The man in the bed isn’t me |
| Now I slipped out the door and I’m runnin' free |
| Young and wild like I’ll always be |
| No the man in the bed isn’t me |
| And these tremblin' hands, they’re not mine |
| Now my hands are strong and steady all the time |
| They can swing a sledge hammer or soothe a baby that’s cryin' |
| These trembling hands, they’re not mine |
| Now the nurse over there doesn’t know |
| That I ain’t some helpless old so-and-so |
| I could have broken her heart not that long ago |
| Now the nurse over there doesn’t know |
| That the man in the bed isn’t me |
| ‘Cause I slipped out the door and I’m runnin' free |
| Young and wild like I’ll always be |
| The man in the bed isn’t me |
| I’m the man I’ve always been |
| I’m the kid who rode the rails through the Great Depression |
| I fought in the big war and marched for the Union |
| I’m the man I’ve always been |
| So don’t believe what the doctors say |
| They’re just makin' things up so they can get paid |
| Yeah, and it ain’t me they’re talkin' about anyway |
| So don’t believe what the doctors say |
| ‘Cause the man in the bed isn’t me |
| Well I slipped out the door and I’m finally free |
| Young and wild like I’ll always be |
| No the man in the bed isn’t me |
| No the man in the bed isn’t me |
| No the man in the bed isn’t me |
