Fuckin' Up

Neil Young


Mindless drifter on the road. Why do I ?
Carry such an easy load. Why do I ?
It's how you look,
and how you feel. Why do I ?
You must have
a heart of steel. Why do I ?

Why do I keep fuckin' up?

I can see you on a hill. Why do I ?
Comatose but walking still. Why do I ?
Curves beneath
your flowing gown. Why do I ?
Only I could
bring you down. Why do I?

Why do I keep fuckin' up?

Dogs that lick
and dogs that bite. Why do I ?
Hounds that howl
through the night. Why do I ?
Broken leashes
are all over the floor. Why do I ?
Keys left hanging
in a swinging door.. Why do I ?

Why do I keep fuckin' up?

Keep fuckin' up!
