Desperate and Depressed |
I’m pissed off at the number |
Of people that I meet |
Who go to shake my hand |
With a viper up their sleeve |
They freeze me out all winter |
Burn me up all summer |
Try to take my money |
When I’m desperate and depressed |
Ain’t it a mess |
I’ve played for free and paid for |
The miles on my truck |
Got no sleep in motels |
Cause the worry keeps me up |
It almost drives me crazy |
Thinking about my baby |
And how he’s gonna love me |
If I’m desperate and depressed |
Can’t get no rest |
Momma never told me |
That things would be this way |
Daddy tried to warn me |
That there’d be hell to pay |
If I can’t find the money |
Then I can’t buy the time |
I’m stuck here making |
Someone else’s dime |
We busked in Sarasota |
I made twenty-seven bucks |
I wept for Richard Manuel |
Thinking I might have his luck |
You talked behind my back |
But only stabbed me in the front |
But don’t think you can hurt me |
Cause I’m desperate and depressed |
Ain’t it a mess |
Please, somebody tell me |
How to make it stop |
This world feels like a roller coaster |
I just can’t get off |
Tried rehab and probation |
Tried self-medication |
But none of that can cure you |
When you’re desperate and depressed |
Ain’t it a mess |
Momma never told me |
That things would be this way |
Daddy tried to warn me |
That there’d be hell to pay |
But if I can’t find the money |
Then I can’t buy the lie |
Oh, ten percent of nothing |
Ain’t a dime |
So don’t you try to sell me back what’s mine |
I’ll be desperate and depressed until I die |
