The Xerox Copied Crossword Puzzle Blues Lyrics by Herndon

0

The Xerox-Copied Crossword Puzzle Blues
Well I'm stuck right here
Stuck in River City
Thinking about the way the children smile
But the news reporter claimed
If you're reaching out for fame
You gotta make the children cry once in a while
So I'm whistling for shots
From the doctor on the block
He says someday he and I'll retire
But until that mythic day
When we get our hard-earned pay
We'll just take turns lighting "TV Guides" on fire
So long, cruel world
I'll see you in the morning
I'm going to spend some time among the dead
If breakfast gets too cold
Remember what you're told
And don't let the corpses get underfed
Everybody wants to be my doctor
And everybody wants to save my soul
But I am at a loss
'Cause I been carrying this cross
And that's the last thing I wanted you to know
Good people, that's the last I want you to know
Everybody's trying to be my baby
Everybody's trying to be my man
But I just got here
About twenty-two years ago
And all I'm really looking for
Is a friend
All I'm really looking for is a friend
All I'm really looking for is a friend
