INTRO
VERSE 1
Yeah well no one really understands,
A shopping cart is filled with cans,
And a top hat, and a snare drum, and a horn.
And a poster and some magazines,
With my picture, and some magic beans,
And a blanket, that I got, when I was born.
CHORUS 1
riff
Different people do the same things everyday,
I just look the other way,
riff
But I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
riff
I deny a problem with my attitude,
Cuz I will work for food,
riff
Yeah I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
VERSE 2
I wasn't always pararnoid,
Sang a song on Uncle Floyd,
But the records, never sold, and that was bad.
And my Mommy still took care of me,
Till I was almost thirty-three
Now she's gone up to heaven, to see Dad.
CHORUS 2
Sheriffs came with pistols and their starry sleeves,
Gimme thirty days to leave,
And I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
riff
No one wants to pay me for my broken heart,
So now I've got this shopping cart,
riff
And I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
On.....
On, and on, and on, and on, and on.....
VERSE 3 (same as Verse 1 above)
CHORUS 3
Different people do the same things everyday,
I just look the other way,
And I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
riff
I can't live without eternal gratitude,
Cuz I will work for food,
riff
And I keep on rollin', I keep on rollin'...
On...
On, and on and on, and on, and on....
On, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on and on and
On...
Have fun!!!
