Go out yonder, peace in the valley: Come down town, have a rumble in the alley. Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in. Has anybody seen my lady, 'Cause livin' alone will drive you crazy: Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in. I'm gonna go down to the river, But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no. I'll just be lookin' for my baby, 'Cause I hear that that's where she's been. Out of nine lives, I've spent seven. How in the world do I get to Heaven? Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in. Aw, here it comes! I just spent sixty days in the jailhouse, For the crime of havin' no dough, no. Now here I am, back on the streets, For the crime of havin' nowhere to go. Save your neck, save your brother. Looks like it's one or the other: Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in. SongtexteNo, no, no. Ooh, Lord, uh huh, I think I'm goin' down by the river. But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no. I'll just be lookin' for my baby, 'Cause I hear that that's where she's been. Out of nine lives, I've spent seven. How in the world do I get to Heaven? Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in. Oh, I said: "Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in." Aus Songtexte Mania
