The Jig Is Up

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I am a troubled man Trouble is what I am I am a troubled man And I'll take all you can give me [Chorus 1] I, I walk alone Hand in my trouble, but still nobody's home I'm in the poorhouse forever I'm in the doghouse forever and ever with you [Verse 2] I am a simple man Simple is what I am I am quite simply mad And not particularly glad to be You were a simple friend I complicated you, then I lost that simple friend All complications unending [Chorus 2] I, I think alone I could use some good help with my thinking, it's too far from home I could think of you forever I could think of us together But nevermind [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] I am a lonely man Lonely is what I am Heartbroken, lonely I think of you only, are you with me? [Chorus 3] I wasn't ever that smart No, and I wasn't clever to think I had a hold of your heart And I could break your heart forever I could break mine and yours both right in two after you You won't go gently into that bad earth I will fight for you with all that is within you and for all that it's worth Can I run to you forever? 'Cause if I can't run to you forever How can I run to you now? [Outro] You live on my doorstep Is there room in my house? [Guitar Solo]
