And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack And you may find yourself in another part of the world And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile And you may find yourself in a beautiful house With a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself-well...how did I get here? Letting my days go by, let the water hold me down Letting my days go by, water flowing underground Into the blue again, after the moneys gone Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground And you may ask yourself How do I work this? And you may ask yourself Where is that large automobile? And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful house! And you may tell yourself This is not my beautiful wife! Letting my days go by, let the water hold me down
Letting my days go by, water flowing underground Into the blue again, after the moneys gone Once in a lifetime, water flowing underground Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...same as it ever was...same as it ever was... Same as it ever was...same as it ever was... And you may ask yourself What is that beautiful house? And you may ask yourself Where does that highway go to? And you may ask yourself Am I right or am I wrong? And you may say to yourself My god!...what have I done? Letting my days go by, let the water hold me down Letting my days go by, water flowing underground Into the blue again, after the moneys gone Once in a lifetime...
