Now and Then

Sometimes I lose my way
I forget the words to say
Been having trouble with myself
And yes I am in pretty bad health
That don’t bother me
I tell you that’s a fact
It’s easy to keep track
Now that I’ve been there and back
Some people try to make a deal
They wanna tell me how to feel
They wanna take a piece of mine
So they can say they had a piece of mine
They must think I’m asleep
But I ain’t takin' a nap
It’s easy to keep track
Now that I’ve been there and back
Doing weird things with my time
Far away from my peace of mind
Taking things that are not mine
I gotta clear my honky tonk mind
So I’m out in the street
Gotta get right back
It’s easy to keep track
Now that I’ve been there and back
