Rollin' and Tumblin'

I don't think I'm going out anymore

You'd better find some other body to comfort

When I was trembling, baby, you was a diamond

But you ain't a diamond no more

So what you want to say is my head is a hurricane

Well let me sleep on that, uh huh, all right

You say I'm hopelessly devoted to misery

Well I don't want to be so devoted no more

And all of my friends want to get into heaven

And all I keep thinking is I wish you were here

I heard that they've been calling me the Great Depression

Rollin' and tumblin', breaking my own heart again

Shimmy, shimmy, shake, baby right in my bloodstream

I don't know what it was that got in my room

My ticker-tape heart broke and everything shook in here

But I heard it could be worse

So what you want to say is my head is a weathervane

Spinning with the wind chime, right

Maybe I was born on the Fourth of July

Exploding like a firework

And all of my friends want to get into heaven

And all I keep thinking is I wish you were here

I heard that they've been calling me the Great Depression

Rollin' and tumblin'

And all of my friends want to get into heaven

And all I keep thinking is I wish you were here

I heard that they've been calling me the Great Depression

Rollin' and tumblin'

So should I take everything

All your temporary medicines?

Should I take your reds, your blues, and your cocaine?

Should I take something to try on the weekend?

Should I take anything?

Or did you mean everything?

When I hit the wall, wrecked from it all

You put flowers down on the cold ground

And cry me a river

And assure me I'm crazy

While you question the answers

And you lean on my best friends

Until you find better weather

And you take a vacation

I hope you got all my letters

Signed the Great Depression

Baby, rollin' and tumblin'
