He said “hey lady, you think you spare a dime?
I turned around and I saw his face
I felt myself like a big disgrace
But I kept my pace, I picked up my stride
I’d forget that man, I’d retain my pride
And I’d sing…..la la la la la la la la la la la
Oh, oh, oh la la la la la la la la la la la
I made it back to the place I call my home, oh, oh, oh
3 or 4 of these messages on my phone
She said I needed someone to hear
A friend of mine that I do not fear
But I hit erase, I turned off the phone
I’d forget that girl, wanna be alone
And I’d sing…..la la la la la la la la la la la
Oh, oh, oh la la la la la la la la la la la
I can hardly survive myself
How can you ask for my solemn help?
What makes you think that I’m so unique?
To give you all of the help you need…
What was I thinkin’?
I saw a bird on the side of the road today, oh, oh, oh
Two feet of snow had swept all of his food away
I started singin’ my same ol’ song
I started thinkin’ it all seemed wrong
Then I changed my tune, I reversed that car
I could help him out, I could take her call, I could save them all
And we’d sing…..la la la la la la la la la la la
Oh, oh, oh la la la la la la la la la la la
