Yeay, what's up? It's Terry Callier Got a new way to flow For Ordinary Joe You know For my opening line I might try to indicate my state of mind Or turn you on Or tell you that I'm laughin' Just to keep from cryin' Pretty music, when you hear it Keep on tryin' to get near it A little rhythm for your spirit But that's what it's for C'mon in here's the door I've seen a sparrow get high Wasting time in the sky He thinks it's easy to fly He's just a little bit freer than I Down here on the ground When you find folks are givin' you the runaround Get your game up tight And if you must just take your secrets underground Politicians try to speech you Mad color watchers try to teach you Very few will really try to reach you If you're lost in the stack That's OK, come on black Now I'd be the last to deny That I'm just an average guy Each little bird in the sky Is just a little bit freer than I Say, Ordinary Joe Although they say you're just a lazy so-and-so What they think is real Is nothing but an animated puppet show So don't let time and space confuse you And don't let name and form abuse you Well let Big Joe Williams blues you In the light of the sun you can see how they run I've seen a sparrow get high Wasting time in the sky He thinks it's easy to fly He's just a little bit freer than I A new way to flow
