Sometimes I go walking through the long tall grassnWonder how long hard times will lastnFor this backward soul on a road that god knows wherenAs hard as I try ain't left no tracknIt's not enough to find my way backnI hit the ground like broken glass and just lay therennSinging why me, oh why menAnd I throw another empty bottle up against the wallnAnd I say why me, oh why menBut pitty never ever did me any kinda good at allnSo I walk onnnAnd I wound up on the capital stepsnWatching the lobbyists smoking cigarettesnAnd bury their shoes in the country club bluesnAnd who got who by the short hairsnnStanding there in their high dollar suitsnLooking down at my tattered old jeans and bootsnAnd this weathered guitar that seems to follow me everywherenGod it follows me everywherennPlaying why me, oh why menAll I got's another song about how money makes and breaks the lawnAnd I sing why me, oh why menI'm just a broke troubadour with a bark for the underdognSo I walk onnnNow I ain't Jesus, but I can relatenTo a man looking death square in the facenEven he hit his knees with a plea in the garden of GethsemanenTo his holy father he raised his eyesnIn his darkest hours he criednPlease would you take this cup from mennPraying why me, oh why menKnowing all the while he had to carry that cross and hang therenWhen I say why me, oh menI know that somewhere up in heaven there's a big old book with my name therenSo I walk on, I rock onnEven when I'm singing, why me, I rock onnEven when I'm singing, why me, I rock onnEven when I'm singing, why me
