Wastin' time all the time
Workin' sleepin', laughin' weepin'
Runnin' around all the time
I've been told that when you're old
that you were really alone
Sitting, talking, running, walking,
Trouble one day, stormy Monday
Get together, oily weather
Runnin' around till you die
It's been said that, when you did that,
Trouble one day, stormy Monday,
get the rhyme or the rhythm going down town
Golden Street, it'll get all alone
To your side of the mountain
getting comfortable alone
Thinkin' drinkin', risin' sinkin',
Follow trouble, with a double
Trippin' around on a dime
Ain't it cute that, when you shoot that
Thinkin' drinkin', risin' sinkin'
