Rock 'N' Roll Mood

I pick me up by the seat of my pants

And put my fingers down on the keys

To sing a story that ends with nobody friends

I'm a-sittin' on a rock 'n' roll mood

I'd like to help you, but I know it's no good

They say nobody's friend is nobody's fool

That's an old sayin' that I just made up

Singin' songs is to make people smile

But I'm having trouble smilin' myself

And now you ask me for a song to help you along

But I'm a-sittin' on a rock 'n' roll mood

I'd like to help you, but I know it's no good

I'm like a fish that done dropped out of his school

That's another saying that I just made up

How about a man who can't see his own face

Look at himself in the act

Or a fortune teller whose client just told her 'bout

What she's doing that for, and that ain't all

Now won't you think of a man with a watch in his hand

Who's trying to find him some time

Now how 'bout the singer who's sittin' here singin'

That he's sittin' on the rock 'n' roll mood

He'd like to help you, but he knows

At least, he thinks he's no good

Sittin' on the rock 'n' roll mood

Here's an old sayin', I think I'll go home
