| I just got here early yesterday
|
| It won’t be long and I’ll be on my way
|
| These few days, that I’ll be round
|
| Please don’t try to bring me down
|
| I made my entrance on the greyhound bus
|
| I don’t intent to cause a fuss
|
| You like my style that’s fine with me
|
| If you don’t just let me be
|
| Don’t try to make me what I’m not
|
| I just get by with what I’ve got
|
| Live let live, that’s my advice
|
| If you got questions, ask me nice
|
| Now I don’t claim to be so great
|
| I’m no pacesetter, I’m no potentate
|
| I got some kids, I got a wife
|
| I’m just trying to swing my way through life
|
| Don’t try to make me what I’m not
|
| I just get by with what I’ve got
|
| Live let live, that’s my advice
|
| If you got questions, ask me nice
|
| I’m not the first, I’m not the most
|
| And of this town, I' am not the toast
|
| I’m getting older, every day
|
| I’m just trying to do it baby in my way
|
| So don’t try to make me what I’m not
|
| I just get by with what I’ve got
|
| Live let live, that’s my advice
|
| If you got questions, ask me nice |
