Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Sitting in the back seat of my car with my arms around my guitar

And the rain falls from the roof of the world

Nothing around, just the trees and the ground

There's a bird in a tree singing a song just for me, just for me

[Verse 2]

I've been down for oh, so long

It seemed like my soul was dead and gone

But it's alright, I'm back in the fight

I thought my day would never come

Maybe it won't, but I'll have fun

And I'll hold tight 'cause that way it might

[Verse 3]

Oh, I know I'll be down again with my old friend

This friendship never ends, the blues is always the same

The blues is always the same

[Verse 4]

Well, I don't know just where I am

I'm a nowhere man, I'm a Desperate Dan

But I'll find out, maybe if I shout

Give me your hand, I'll give you my mind

It's a fair exchange if you're deaf, dumb and blind

And we're sold out, well, that's what it's all about
