Plans In the Sky

The stain on my lapel says that I'm living well
I've barely a care in the world
I ain't wearing a suit or putting down my roots
For a well-paid job or a girl

You could do so much better
Than that old tattered sweater
And a day off the booze wouldn't hurt
I am as you found me, I'll drink till I drowning
And take no advice from a skirt

Where did you get the Stones
You've yet to leave home
Don't call till you get your own keys
When you drink and you dial, I only smile
There's no sight like a man on his knees

I could tell you some stories
Of guts and past glories
That would wipe that smile off your face
Believe me I've heard them
More times than you've told them
I've gotta get out of this place

We made plans in the sky and they don't have to die
The world turns without you, without I
Catch your breath, fill your boots, look to your roots
Raise your glass, here's mud in your eye

So here's to your future
Here tell them I sent you
I'm here for better or worse
Do you need reminding, these hills we've been climbing
Are worn now, go sing your own verse...

We made plans in the sky and they don't have to die
The world turns without you, without I
Catch a breath, fill your boots, look to your roots
Raise your glass, here's mud in your eye

We made plans in the sky and they don't have to die
The world turns without you, without I
Catch a breath, fill your boots, look to your roots
Raise your glass, here's mud in your eye
