Townes Van Zandt - Where I Lead Me lyrics

By townes van zandt Where i lead me i will travel Where i need me i will call me I'm no fool, i'll be ready God knows i will be And in the meantime make a little money And buy a little mercy Met this morning, now he loves me Say's he loves me It must be easy, look around you All around you But you see the motion, you're not movin' You don't know how to hold on Just keep it loose Don't get excited, it'll pa** before long Now one is goin' one is stayin' One is silent one is saying' Here's your coat, take care of yourself Sorry you're leavin' A little sad you're all i had Will you be returnin' The boys upstairs are gettin' hungry You can shout in the wind about how it will be Or you can clench your fist, shake your head And head to the country I got no doubt about it my friend That's where they'll find me That's where they're gonna find me Ask the boys down in the gutter Now they won't lie cause you don't matter The street's just fine if you're good and blind But it ain't where you belong Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money And carry yourself home Roll down your sleeves, pick up your money And carry yourself home
