Lyrics for Song: Can't Seem to Get Nowhere
Lyrics for Album: Me and McDill [RCA Victor] [1977]
(Bob McDill)
Here I am a livin' fast, smokin' Lucky's and talkin' trash
Hangin' out on a barroom stool actin' like a fool
Out of work and out of luck stay out late and I drink too much
You see my face all over town I ought to settle down.
Yes, I guess I must confess
Look at me, my life's a mess
Just like a rockin' chair
I can't seem to get nowhere.
All my friends are married now guess I missed the boat somehow
They all moved away last year but I'm still here
Talkin' big and wastin' time I tell the girls I'm twenty-nine
But lately I think it shows I'm gettin' old.
Yes, I guess I must confess
Look at me, my life's a mess
Just like a rockin' chair
I can't seem to get nowhere.
--- Instrumental ---
Yes, I guess I must confess
Look at me, my life's a mess
Just like a rockin' chair
I can't seem to get nowhere...
Here I am a livin' fast, smokin' Lucky's and talkin' trash
Hangin' out on a barroom stool actin' like a fool
Out of work and out of luck stay out late and I drink too much
You see my face all over town I ought to settle down...
