This place gets awful messy
when yer gone
Things ain’t in the places
they belong
The boys and me been stayin
up till dawn
And three of them are sleeping
on the lawn
if you gonna go
baby, let me know
i’ll hire me a crew
to do the things you do
several will get paid
a cop, a chef, a maid
a seamstress and a shrink
someone to hall away my stink
Things get mighty lonesome
when you go
Days are long and nighttime
lost its glow
The boys and me been raisin
Cain too long
Won’t you please come back
where you belong?
if you gonna go
baby, let me know
i’ll hire me a crew
to do the things you do
several will get paid
a cop, a chef, a maid
a seamstress and a shrink
someone to hall away my stink

You can’t lie away the pain
But you can hide it for a while
Whitewash covers up a stain
Like a fresh coat of denial
You can’t drink away the pain
It’s such a sad and silly goal
And if you don’t go insane
You might just wash away your soul
You can’t laugh away the pain
By insisting it’s not real
When your dreams go down the drain
Don’t pretend that you don’t feel
I can’t love away your pain
But I can help you through the day
We’ll walk together in the rain
It’s never gonna go away

It’s a rough and tumble universe
You’re gonna take some lumps
Now and then all of us
Are gonna get the grumps
It’s easy to be glum
In a world with so much bad
To celebrate misfortune
And paint the sky with sad
That’s why I admire
Folks who face the day
With a cheerful disposition
Whatever comes their way
You can be a hero
With a smile on your face
Attack this cruel, cruel world
With gentleness and grace

I had a happy home
And I thought I needed more
I had a happy home
I don’t have it any more
Driving, driving nowhere
Don’t wanna go home
Driving, driving nowhere
I can’t stand myself alone
Driving, driving nowhere
And my gas is running low
Driving, driving nowhere
Cuz I got nowhere to go
I had a girl who loved me
What more can I say?
I had a girl who loved me
And I sent my girl away
Driving, driving nowhere
Don’t wanna go home
Driving, driving nowhere
I can’t stand myself alone
Driving, driving nowhere
And my gas is running low
Driving, driving nowhere
Cuz I got nowhere to go
Ain’t nowhere to go
I ain’t never gonna find
The lovin that I lost
Now I’m gonna lose my mind
Driving, driving nowhere
Don’t wanna go home
Driving, driving nowhere
I can’t stand myself alone
Driving, driving nowhere
And my gas is running low
Driving, driving nowhere
Cuz I got nowhere to go

Love can take a mighty toll
Love can lacerate your soul
Love can mutilate your guts
Love can make your brain go nuts
Love is crazy
Love is wild
But it’s hardly ever mild
Love is groovy
Love is grand
But it never goes as planned
Love’s a ride
That thrills and throws
And nobody ever knows
What it’s gonna do to a man
Love can make the stars align
Love can make your whole world shine
Love can readjust your view
Love can make your whole life new
Love is crazy
Love is wild
But it’s hardly ever mild
Love is groovy
Love is grand
But it never goes as planned
Love’s a ride
That thrills and throws
And nobody ever knows
What it’s gonna do to a man

A man should support
And defend his girl
Treat her like she’s
Precious as a pearl
He should wake up
In the morning
And think of her
And love her and protect her
From this cold, cold world
But time’s gonna come
She’ll havta pursue
Her place in the world
Like we all want to
It hurts like hell
But it’s still true
Gotta let people do
What they gonna do
A woman is a treasure
But she ain’t no prize
She can’t be cloistered
From wayward eyes
A good loving man
Must realize
Gotta let love breathe
Or it’s gonna die

You could see your doctor for some tests
He’ll say “drink some juice and get some rest”
Beg your pardon if I’m actin lewd
But I’m the one to fill you up with fluid
It’s time to take your Vitamin Me
To inoculate against insanity
I’m a remedy for everything that bores
I’m rejuvenating and and I’ll clear your pores
You could call a nurse who gives advice
She’ll say rest and relaxation should suffice
But Honey, I got processes planned
To leave you felling like a hundred grand
It’s time to take your Vitamin Me
To inoculate against inanity
I’m a remedy for everything that bores
I’m rejuvenating and and I’ll clear your pores
We might havta break a couple laws
But it’s better than a weekend at the spa
My treatments obliterate the blahs
But it ain’t the kinda thing you tell your ma
It’s time to take your Vitamin Me
To inoculate against insanity
I’m a remedy for everything that bores
I’m rejuvenating and I’ll clear your pores

I fell in love with your heart
Ain’t never been very smart
My passion making me a slave
Love is gonna put me in my grave
I fell in love with your heart
Your eyes are like a paira’ poison darts
Your tender love is hollow and untrue
Lord knows what I ever saw in you
I fell in love with your heart
I knew I shoulda’ run from the start
Smiling while you cut me to the bone
I’d be so much better off alone
I fell in love with your heart
Why you gotta pick my world apart?
My soul is freezing naked in the rain
I guess it ain’t no secret I’m insane
I fell in love with your heart
Ain’t never been very smart
My passion making me a slave
Love is gonna put me in my grave
