What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Sometimes I go walking through the long tall grass
2
Wonder how long hard times will last
3
For this backward soul on a road that god knows where
4
As hard as I try ain't left no track
5
It's not enough to find my way back
6
I hit the ground like broken glass and just lay there
7
Chorus
8
Singing why me, oh why me
9
And I throw another empty bottle up against the wall
10
And I say why me, oh why me
11
But pitty never ever did me any kinda good at all
12
So I walk on
13
Verse ii
14
And I wound up on the capital steps
15
Watching the lobbyists smoking cigarettes
16
And bury their shoes in the country club blues
17
And who got who by the short hairs
18
Standing there in their high dollar suits
19
Looking down at my tattered old jeans and boots
20
And this weathered guitar that seems to follow me everywhere
21
God it follows me everywhere
22
Chorus
23
Playing why me, oh why me
24
All I got's another song about how money makes and breaks the law
25
And I sing why me, oh why me
26
I'm just a broke troubadore with a bark for the underdog
27
So I walk on
28
Verse iii
29
Now I ain't Jesus, but I can relate
30
To a man looking death square in the face
31
Even he hit his knees with a plea in the garden of gethsemane
32
To his holy father he raised his eyes
33
In his darkest hours he cried
34
Please would you take this cup from me
35
Chorus
36
Praying why me, oh why me
37
Knowing all the while he had to carry that cross and hang there
38
When I say why me, oh me
39
I know that somewhere up in heaven there's a big old book with my name there
40
So I walk on, I rock on
41
Even when I'm singing, why me, I rock on
42
Even when I'm singing, why me, I rock on
43
Even when I'm singing, why me
