Shape I'm In

Go down yonder, peace in the valley



Come downtown, have a rumble in the alley



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in



Has anybody seen my baby?



This livin' alone will drive you crazy



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in



I'm gonna go down to the river



But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no



I'll just be looking for my baby



And I hear that's where she's been, oh



Out of nine lives, I've spent seven



Working it day by day, trying to get to heaven



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in



I've just spent sixty days in the jailhouse



For having the crime of having no dough



Here I am back out on the street



With the crime of having nowhere to go



Save your neck, save your brother



Looks like it's one or the other



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in



Save your neck, save your brother



Looks like it's one or the other



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in



Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
