Getting the gas up


I'm getting the gas up, man
Feeling like there's somewhere to go, man
Not sure what direction it is, man
Might be north, east, south or west, man
Maybe not west, that's out to sea, man
But anywhere else could be it, you know
If I stay here it's the boredom, man
Looking out the window to sea, man
Sometimes a wave passing by, man
But if I go north, what you think, man
Is it better than heading east, man
Or I could head off south into town, you know
Is there anything there for me now, man
Or am I really too gone to take it all on, man
Too past my best and needing a rest, man
So what would I do if I got there, man
What at all could I do there now, man
Maybe past my best in my heart, you know
Or maybe too scared to face it, man
It's a big thing to take on in your mind, man
And a real heart-breaker as well, man
As I accept that I'm way past my best, man
And really hurting it through, man
The worst - the future's no good, you know

Janice Joplin

I listen to this an awful lot, it's only a short song but I really enjoy it. I hope you do too.

Was doing pretty well you know

Was doing pretty well you know
Not drinking too much you know
Shouldn't drink at all you know
But I was doing alright

A few days ago it changed you know
Fell off the horse again you know
Shouldn't drink booze at all you know
But it turned to shite

Can I get back on the horse, do you know
Stop taking drink again, do you know
'Cause I know it's not right you know
I do need to get it right, alright, alright
You know
