Not the Way I Think

Charles David Sharp


I was playing guitar 
And cloudy was the day 
My friends they're all off telling jokes 
About some fish today 
And I'm steady making faces 
And looking back at me 
Is it you, or who, the thought 
Just ran away from me 
And we're to busy drinking 

To worry 'bout a thing 
It's silly now, the way I thought 
It's not the way, not the way I think 
No, it's not the way I think 
Not the way I think 
No, it's not the way I think 
Running down the road 
Don't let the boot kick your behind 
Just set down, get off, move on 
Down the line 
Remember what your Daddy said 
You know I wouldn't lie 
Himiny-hominy hoba 
Meka-leka high 
And we're too busy drinking 

To worry 'bout a thing 
It's silly now the way I thought 
It's not the way, not the way I think 
No it's not the way I think 
Not the way I think, it's not the way I think
