(dimucci/fasce)

I've been sitting here thinking

When i started out drinking

I went on to the dope surely just to change my life

I cried a tear and a beer for me

I lost everything near and dear to me

Namely my children and my wife

I've an idea of having a good time

Was sitting up there with my head between my knees

Well i knew everything there was to know

Everything except which way to go

I cried oh god please take me will you take me please

(yeah) many a time (well i) swore up and down

I don't need none of this junk that's a floating round

I could quit - let me finish what i've got

After all this stuff sure costs a lot

Then i get my feet back on the ground

Now i can't tell nobody how to live their life

Even though inside we're all the same

All these things are toys i was playing with

You know, you know we're all losers in the end

(well now) since i've been straight

I haven't been in my cups

I ain't shooting downs i ain't using ups

You know i'm still as crazy as a loon

Even though i don't run out and cop a spoon

Thank the good lord god well i've had enough

I've got a friend and his name is robertson

He told me "don't need to be stoned to know a friend

Believe me you're all beautiful people just the way you are

Tell me, what has that stuff done for you so far?"

I've been sitting here thinking i've been winking i've been blinking

Well i don't have to sit around no more on the nod

With my head in the air (you know)

I can do anything I want to do, and i can do it straight i can do it so much better now

Its gotta start

Right here in your own back yard

Yes it's gotta start back your own back yard

Everybody has their own beautiful back yard

You might find oil wells in your own back yard

You might find anything in your own back yard

You might even find my shadow in your own back yard

(who knows what you might dig up)
