Lyrics
It's All About Me
© 2004 Jerry Clevenger
When I got up today, I had a feeling so rare
Looked all around me, but I just didn?t care
So I called into work, said I'm doing just fine
Taking a break, a little draw on my time
And if you need me, I might be back on Sunday
But believe me, maybe after Monday
I'll be hanging around at a place that keeps calling me
I'll be walking by a river near an old rail track
I'll be touching everything that I see
Sitting in the doorway of a worn down shack
There nobody's gonna bother me
Maybe if I"m lucky and the sun will shine
I'll toss away my troubles on a fishing line
But I ain't coming back till I'm free, It's all about me
Well I packed me a bag, as I gassed up the car
Saw me sign said it wasn't that far
It?s a place down the road that I knew as a boy
It?s brought some peace and now it brings me some joy
And if you need me, I might be back on Sunday
But believe me, maybe after Monday
I'll be hanging around at a place that keeps calling me
I'll be walking by a river near an old rail track
I'll be touching everything that I see
Sitting in the doorway of a worn down shack
There nobody's gonna bother me
Maybe if I"m lucky and the and the rain will pour
I'll wash away my worries in a thunderstorm
But I ain't coming back till I'm free, It's all about me
No I ain?t coming back till I?m free, No I ain?t coming back till I?m free
No I ain?t coming back till I?m free, It?s all about me
