Swinging Man |
I am the swingin' man, perpetually on the lam |
Free as a bird or the girls in Amsterdam |
Yellow taxi ride, hey, I never exercise |
The devil when I speak or when I rise |
Buddy Holly, told me |
You can’t save rock 'n' roll |
It’s only for the lonely boys and girls |
I’m a courageous cat down at the Laundromat |
A sacred cow I never took a vow |
Like old buildings and whores, politicians and wars |
All get respect man if they last this long |
They used to call her Mary |
But she changed her name to Raph |
Life was something scary till she laughed |
We never had a baby but she got more tattoos |
And I got more material for the blues |
Summer’s rolling in |
I want to lose this skin |
They call it art but sometimes it’s just a sin |
I am a swingin' man, hey, I smile on command |
I don’t know when or how you got to me |
We never had a baby but she got more tattoos |
And I got more material for the blues |
