Why Me

Why Me 

When things go wrong & you keep on tryin' 
But the technical don't work out right 
You call up the lawyer, but the phone is busy 
& you don't get to sleep tonight 
Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? 

You jump in the car & you head for the highway 
But the gate sits some big oh-wee 
You find your hotline, but it heats up your last time 
& friends own a luxury 
Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? 

Bridge: 
I fought the pack off a silver dollar, but the silver just turned to gold 
I fought the law with a Dennis Holler, but they pulled me back away 

You find yourself in the midst of the crossroads 
With the lights all turning red 
Right in the pocket, right in the south 
The purse, it drops on your hand 
Why me? Why me? Why me? Oh why me? 

("uh huh huh" scat singing) 
(repeat bridge) 

Well, you go your way & I go my way 
The world keeps spinnin' 'round 
You got the answer in your big back-a pocket 
Just start puttin' in down 
Why me? Why me? Why me? Oh why me? 
I know, you know, why me?
