Livin' Here Too

J.J. Cale

Don't ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies

I was born in a freight train passin' by

My mother was poor, my father too

I'll take anything I can get from you

I did not make this old world,

I'm just livin' here too

Been shot three times runnin', cut with a knife

I got four children working, ain't got no wife

Well, the landlord is callin', I'm overdue

If you don't watch my fingers

I'll put the touch on you

I did not make this old world,

I'm just livin' here too

I didn't make this old world,

I'm just livin' here too



Turn around slowly, look behind

I'm comin' from nowhere and not by design

I didn't make this old world, I'm just livin' here too

I didn't make this old world, I'm just livin' here too
