A Little Alone

A LITTLE ALONE
VERSE I
I'VE GOT A ROYAL COUSIN IN NIGERIA
HE CALLED ME FOR SOME MONEY TODAY
HE TOLD ME I COULD SIT RIGHT NEXT TO HIS THRONE
AND ALL I HAVE TO DO IS PAY

VERSE II
I WORK AS A TESTER IN THE COSMETIC FIELDS
THEY CALL ME BY MY NAME
I WORKED SO HARD WHEN I WENT BLIND
THEY GAVE ME MY FIRST WHITE CANE

CHORUS

I'M THE LUCKIEST GUY I KNOW OF
OF THE LUCKIEST GUYS I'VE KNOWN
SLEEPIN ON A PARK BENCH SINGIN THIS SONG
JUST A LITTLE ALONE

VERSE III

I'M SELLIN MY BLOOD FOR THIS WINDFALL
THAT FELL IN MY LAP
THE PONZI BROTHERS SAID GET IN QUICK
OTHERWISE I'D BE A SAP

(REPEAT CHORUS)

INSTRUMENTAL

VERSE IV

I MARRIED LITTLE QUEENIE DOWN IN MEXICO
I GAVE HER A CARDBOARD CROWN
SHE DIDN'T LOVE ME SHE LOVED THE U. S. A.
BUT I GOT THE CLEANEST BENCH IN TOWN

BRIDGE

FOLKS ASK IF I'M LUCKY AT CARDS
OR IF I'M LUCKY AT LOVE
I THINK YOU KNOW BY NOW IN THIS SONG
WITH ME IT'S ALL THE ABOVE

VERSE V
MY BROTHER IN LAW ROBS CONVENIENCE STORES
HE SAYS IT'S CONVENIENT HE COMES ALIVE
I WAS THE LOOKOUT ONE TIME YOUR HONOR
BUT I'M DOING THREE TO FIVE (LOOKOUT)
CHORUS II

I'M THE LUCKIEST GUY I KNOW OF
OF THE LUCKIEST GUYS I KNOW
SLEEPIN WITH MY CELLMATES SINGING THIS SONG
BUT I'M NOT ALONE
LUCKIEST GUY I KNOW OF OF THE LUCKIEST GUYS I'VE
KNOWN SLEEPIN ON A PARK BENCH SINGIN THIS SONG
JUST A LITTLE ALONE
