Intro (4x) verse 1 Before I went to jail When I was sayin' that I was free You was lined up down the avenue Just about as far as I could see You got one eye on my dungarees And another on my reviews And a third one on the waitress She was straightenin' up the pews She was passin' around a basket She was wipin' off the spoon She was readin' the handwriting on the moon (handwriting on the moon) verse 2 You call yourself a handyman You can do anything with your hands Telling me about your family Telling me about your plans Yeah, well I ain't got the belly for this And you ain't got the brains And if you emptied out all of your pockets, honey You could not make the change She keeps passin' around that basket You keep droppin' in your dues Instead of readin' the handwriting on the moon (handwriting on the moon) verse 3 Mine sure ain't the belly And I know yours ain't the brains And if you emptied out all your pockets, honey You could not make the change If you emptied out all of your pockets, baby You could not make the change___ Outro (fade to end)
