The Rented Mules - Shakedown Blues Lyrics

I'm not a NARC I've just lived me some life
I've just lived me some life
I'm just like you except two kids and a wife
Just like you, just like you, just like you

Feel like the old guy out at the club
Can't seem get me no Shakedown Street love
Shakedown love, Shakedown love, Shakedown love

Why can't you try and understand
There's still a boy inside this man
Why do you have to look at me and scoff
This old man is just trying to get off

I've seen shows from Georgia to Maine
But these days no one treats me the same
Treats me the same, treats me the same, treats me the same

Been rolling numbers since you were in grade school
So why I am judged as being so uncool
So uncool, so uncool, so uncool

Seen Halloween and New Year's runs
Why do you have to try and spoil my fun
Spoil all my fun, spoil all my fun, spoil all my fun

I've slept in mulch and I've lost my shoes
Now I got me them Shakedown Blues
Shakedown Blues, Shakedown Blues, Shakedown Blues
