The Shape I'm In (Concert Version)
Go out yonder, peace in the valley
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Has anybody seen my lady?
This living alone will drive me crazy
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Well I just went down by the water
But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no
I'll just be looking for my maker
And I hear that that's where she's gone, oh
Out of nine lives, I spent seven
Now, how in the world do you get to Heaven?
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Well, I just spent sixty days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough, no
Now, here I am, back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go
Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like it's one or the other
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Now, two young kids might start a ruckus
You know they feel you tryin' to shuck us
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Thank you
Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Has anybody seen my lady?
This living alone will drive me crazy
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Well I just went down by the water
But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no
I'll just be looking for my maker
And I hear that that's where she's gone, oh
Out of nine lives, I spent seven
Now, how in the world do you get to Heaven?
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Well, I just spent sixty days in the jailhouse
For the crime of having no dough, no
Now, here I am, back out on the street
For the crime of having nowhere to go
Save your neck or save your brother
Looks like it's one or the other
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Now, two young kids might start a ruckus
You know they feel you tryin' to shuck us
Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
Thank you
