David & Me Lyrics by Jerry Jeff Walker

Gypsy Songman: A Life in Song

0

[Verse 1]
Come on in, sit yourself down
Kick your shoes off, my friend
Put your feet up, there's wine in the cup
It's good to see you again
I haven't seen your smile for quite a while
So just unwind, relax your mind
Let the time go by
[Verse 2]
Well, let me see now
I ain't seen you since a while down in Coconut Grove
Except for the time we picked label 9
But that was really no joke
'Cause I got too drunk, and hell I always played that way
So ain't nothing changed, I'm still the same
So let the time go by
[Verse 3]
How is your lady, she still just as crazy?
What the hell was her name?
Remember the night we both got so tight
And never did catch her plane
We played guitar all night in that terminal
We had a ball, played 'em all
Let the time go by
[Verse 4]
You still live upstairs?
Your cats are all there with a dozen guitars
They say we all changed
But I feel the same and I know that you are
They always said we played 'em much too long
But what's a song? It carries on
And makes the time go by
[Verse 5]
Now I live in the West Texas, I guess
Old Austin's the best
I'm building a house ten miles to the south
The old bird's gonna nest
The radio will play our songs sometimes
It makes me smile, erase some miles
Makes the time go by
[Outro]
Yes, it's a long old road we ride down, my friend
Yes, it's a long old road we ride
But I know we'll make it through, we'll make it to the end
Yes, friend, we'll make it, you and I
