I'm Going Crazy in 3/4 Time

(Emmylou Harris, Crowell, Rodney)

Emmylou Harris & Billy Joe Shaver



A song on the clouds is a-rolling by slowly

While me and my pencil ain't making a scratch

This is a hard way to go but it's all I've got going

Wherever I'm going I won't leave no tracks.



The hill I've been climbing just turned to a mountain

I'm caught in the backwash of cheap talk and wine

To tell you the truth, I don't think I can make it

'Cause I'm going crazy in three quarter time.



--- Instrumental ---



I said to myself on the day that you left me

If I see what I sound like would I be so blind

But it's all in the search of a perfect companion

And I thought I had found one till you said goodbye.



The hill I've been climbing just turned to a mountain

I'm caught in the backwash of cheap talk and wine

To tell you the truth, I don't think I can make it

'Cause I'm going crazy in three quarter time.



Yes, I'm going crazy in three quarter time.
