THE STRAND 1974

I GOT FOUR WALLS AND A SIX FOOT CEILING
THAT’S WHAT I CALL HOME
DRINKIN’ HOT COFFEE WITH COLD, COLD FEELINGS
THAT WON’T LEAVE ME ALONE
I GOT A GREEN OCEAN OUT MY FRONT DOOR
THE SKY IS JUST AS GRAY
I FIND MYSELF JUST WALKIN THE FLOOR
WITH NOTHIN MUCH TO SAY

TIME IS HOW YOU SPEND IT
MONEYS JUST THE SAME
I WASTE IT DAY AFTER DAY
TRYIN TO HIDE THE BLAME

THEN I REMEMBER WHAT I’M DOIN’ HERE
AND I WIPE A SWOLLEN EYE
THEN I GRAB ANOTHER COLD BEER
MAKES IT EASIER TO TESTIFY

I GOT DERELICTS FOR MY NEIGHBORS
BUT THEY’RE ALL REAL GOOD FOLKS
SOMETIMES WE READ THE PAPERS
EVEN IF JUST FOR A JOKE
THIS BEACH IS THE PLACE FOR ME
CAUSE OF THE WAY I FEEL
MIGHTY LONELY, AT LEAST I’M FREE
STILL AINT NO BIG DEAL

LIFE IS HOW YA MAKE IT
LOVE’S ABOUT THE SAME
I BURN IT UP DAY AFTER DAY
TRYIN’ TO HIDE THE FLAME

THEN I REMEMBER WHAT I’M DOIN’ HERE
AND I WIPE A SWOLLEN EYE
THEN I GRAB ANOTHER COLD BEER
MAKES IT EASIER TO CRY
