The Alternative Zen Blues Trial

Lyrics

I got some money socked away
Saved it for a rainy day
I got your back, from cradle to grave
What's mine is yours, anything I save
That's how it is when we're tight like this
You said it weren't necessary, but I insist

Still got a room back of our old place
Bed and a desk and a little bit of space
Hot water bottle in a cold-water flat
Least I could do, and that's a fact
That's how it is when we're tight like this
You said it weren't necessary, but I insist

Changes is as changes does, what we is ain't what we was
All the while, along the line, you got a home long as I got mine

Short on corn, and down to cob
You need a line on a good job
Just say the word, and you're on the gig
Pay's low, but I think you'll dig
That's how it is when we're tight like this
You said it weren't necessary, but I insist

I still remember, when I was down
You was the only one to come around
I told ya then, if I got on track
I'd find a way to pay ya back
That's how it is when we're tight like this
You said it weren't necessary, but I insist

Changes is as changes does, what we is ain't what we was
All the while, along the line, you got a home as long as I got mine
