Verse: You could cry wolf or cry me a river Knock on my door with a message to deliver Jameson's whiskey is hard on my liver Tell me somethin' I don't know I close my eyes, asleep on a pillow When someone dies, I weep like a willow Blow 'em a kiss and say bye-bye friend You're never coming back again But that's alright that's OK If you're still standing that's the price you pay When you're gone you don't come back So you roll like a train on a one way track Verse: I lost my way when I lost my love Couldn't make sense of the stars above She's the little dipper that I've been thinkin' of And she's never comin' back again When she said goodbye the words they came quick She spit 'em out fast and I felt so sick Now there ain't nothin' magic in this magic trick Cause she's never comin' back again But that's alright that's OK She never really knew me anyway She taped two regrets to my microphone stand Said you cant hold the hand of a rock'n'roll man Verse: For very long its like a blonde in the bleachers A Joni Mitchell song comin' outta my speakers Goin' to the shop for a new pair of sneakers Then Im gonna take a walk. Let's rock (Instrumental, same chords as the Verse) Verse: Well my sneakers wore out and my guitar broke Sometimes life puts a stick in your spokes Everybody thinks that I'm makin' a joke But I'm tellin' it like it is I'm a hangin' from the branches of my family tree I know I look like my daddy, daddy looks like me Halifax Nova Scotia is the land of the free I don't care what the anthem says Yeah that's alright that's OK You'll be starin' at your phone till your hair goes grey Once in a while it's bound to ring Chuck Berry sings my Ding-a-ling-a-lingggg Verse: I lost my map when I lost my phone Gotta get on the road gotta get gone Ain't gotta a clue how to get back home I guess I better ask at the bar au revoir
