| A man was bothering me today and I Wanted to tell him to go away
|
| But I stood and listened to him anyway, okay.
|
| He said he didn’t want to shoot that man
|
| And it was his thing and I wouldn’t understand
|
| And he had done all that he can, okay.
|
| I guess his body was as good as mine
|
| And just like me he was wasting time
|
| Turning over every stone to see what he could find, okay.
|
| He was filling tank and he asked for money
|
| I lied and said I didn’t have any
|
| Then my conscious took over and I gave him a hand full of change.
|
| Don’t do a thing.
|
| Stay right there.
|
| You’ll lie there.
|
| You don’t seem to care
|
| I know it’s hard to survive in the city
|
| When the beautiful days don’t look so pretty
|
| And you don’t have windows to keep the night away, okay.
|
| He was dirty and stink and just a bit crude
|
| But I didn’t say that because that’s kind of rude
|
| And he didn’t care what I had to say in the first place, okay.
|
| I wanted to say you’re a big disgrace to the world,
|
| Yourself, and the human race
|
| And reach back and pop him one good time in the face, okay.
|
| No it’s not okay and I didn’t do that
|
| But I gave him a smile and tipped my hat and told him to have a very nice rest
|
| Of the day
|
| Don’t do a thing. |
| Don’t do a thing.
|
| Stay right there.
|
| You’ll lie there. |
| You’ll lie there.
|
| You don’t seem to care.
|
| Guess he bought some booze with it And sure that bothers me a little bit but it’s his life and I can’t tell him
|
| How to live it As he turned and started to go his way I tried to think of something wise to Say like…
|
| Don’t do a thing.
|
| Stay right here.
|
| You’ll lie here.
|
| You don’t seem to care.
|
| You’ll die here.
|
| You don’t seem to care |
