Self Pity Lyrics

Artist: The Guess Who
Album: #10

(B. Cummings)

Sure like to boogie after death comes callinâ‚¬â„¢
Sure like rockinâ‚¬â„¢ when Iâ‚¬â„¢m far away
"Ooh Pooh Pah Doo" is lettinâ‚¬â„¢ Jesse watch the heavens
Paint another picture while youâ‚¬â„¢re turning grey

Everything I knew about was always American
Skip a stone lightly and youâ‚¬â„¢ll be okay
Never really get my rockinâ‚¬â„¢ feet to movinâ‚¬â„¢
Till somebodyâ‚¬â„¢s singing "Not Fade Away"

Got mystery train fever, and Iâ‚¬â„¢m a believer
And go down Moses, and Iâ‚¬â„¢ll send you red roses
Despair, and death at an early age

You sang about truckinâ‚¬â„¢ and the band had it movinâ‚¬â„¢
If you were a lizard then you might be gone
A little self-indulgence never moved a mountain
Donâ‚¬â„¢t need the fiddler yellinâ‚¬â„¢ "Yeah, right on!"

Youâ‚¬â„¢re my angel from a wet salvation
You can buy and sell me so you shine me on
Your mama worked hard and the acid made you think about it
Why, mother water, are the days all gone

Got mystery train fever, and Iâ‚¬â„¢m a believer
And go down Moses, and Iâ‚¬â„¢ll send you red roses
Despair, and death at an early age
