Songs for Tomorrow Morning

[Chorus]
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na na na
[Verse]
In the Summer of Love I was mellow and high
I had my bus and my dog and everything I needed to get by
But the years rolled on and I settled down
I parked my bus and took a car pool into town
A stockbroker in a three-piece suit
I gave up sellin' hash and started doin' toot
I had more money that I'd ever dreamed of
I forgot all about the Summer of Love
[Chorus]
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
[Bridge]
The yеars went by faster and faster
Down on Wall Street thеy called me the master
I soon had more money than Lady Astor
I couldn't see an impending disaster
But I wasn't happy
I broke out in a rash
I just could not handle the stress
And then came the crash
[Chorus]
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
[Outro]
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
(I'm free—I lost all I had and that's okay with me)
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
(I'm free—'scuse me, I think I'll check the oil in my van)
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
(I'm free—And I've got five tickets for all five nights of the Grateful Dead)
First I was a hippie
Then I was a stockbroker
Now I am a hippie again
Na na na na na
(I'm free—hey, see my new macrame briefcase?)
First I was a hippie (Yeah, I'm free)
First I was a hippie (Yeah, I'm free)
Now I am a hippie again (I'm free)
