Endangered Species

(Tony Joe White - Waylon Jennings)



I made it through my rock and roll years

With a spent dream and a few dollar bills

I don't know what I learned I don't know what I know

And if I don't now I never will

I ain't seen it all but it's plain to see

I just might be an endangered species.



Like an old gray fox I know how he feels

With the new hats snapping at my heels

I ain't sure what it's all about

I ain't in but don't count me out

They all like to dance but if you want to dance with me

You might be dancing with an endangered species.



I wasted some time with some women I found

At no time ever settlin' down

With one over here and one over there

And that's where nobody cares

But a man in love is what I want to be

I guess that makes me an endangered species.



A man in love is what I want to be

I guess that makes me an endangered species...
