Why Me [In the Style of the Lost Trailers [00:00:00]
Sometimes I go walking[00:00:16]
Through the long tall grass[00:00:18]
Wonder how long hard times will last[00:00:20]
For this backward soul on a road[00:00:23]
That god knows where[00:00:25]
Hard as I try ain't left no track[00:00:29]
It's not enough to find my way back[00:00:32]
I hit the ground like broken glass[00:00:36]
And just lay there[00:00:39]
Singing why me oh why me[00:00:41]
And I throw another empty bottle[00:00:48]
Up against the wall[00:00:51]
And I say why me oh why me[00:00:54]
But pitty never ever did me[00:01:01]
Any kinda good at all[00:01:03]
So I walk on[00:01:07]
And I wound up on the capital steps[00:01:14]
Watching the lobbyists smoking cigarettes[00:01:18]
Bury their shoes in the country club blues[00:01:21]
Who got who by the short hairs[00:01:24]
Standing there in their high dollar suits[00:01:27]
Looking down at my tattered old jeans and boots[00:01:30]
And this weathered guitar[00:01:33]
That seems to follow me everywhere[00:01:35]
God it follows me everywhere[00:01:39]
Playing why me oh why me[00:01:42]
All I got's another song about[00:01:49]
How money makes and breaks the law[00:01:51]
And I sing why me oh why me[00:01:55]
I'm just a broke troubadore[00:02:02]
With a bark for the underdog[00:02:03]
And I walk on[00:02:07]
Now I ain't Jesus but I can relate[00:02:24]
To a man looking death square in the face[00:02:28]
Even he hit his knees with a plea[00:02:31]
In the garden of gethsemane[00:02:33]
To his holy father he raised his eyes[00:02:37]
In his darkest hours he cried[00:02:41]
Please would you take this cup from me[00:02:44]
Praying why me oh why me[00:02:50]
Knowing all the while he[00:02:57]
Had to carry that cross and hang there[00:02:58]
When I say why me oh why me[00:03:02]
I know that somewhere up in heaven[00:03:09]
There's a big old book with my name there[00:03:11]
So I walk on I rock on[00:03:14]
Even when I'm singing why me I rock on[00:03:21]
Even when I'm singing why me I rock on[00:03:27]
Even when I'm singing why me [00:03:33]
Why me[00:03:38]
