Lyrics:
anywhere I'm living
If it's sleeping on some vacant beach or city square
Or if I'm working on some road gang
Or just living off the fat of our great land
Why must every generation think their folks are square
And no matter where their heads are they know mom's ain't there
'Cause I swore when I was
Well, the readin' and the writin' arithmetic
Never did get through to me
It ain't because I'm square or thick
'Cause I learned my A, be, see
the corner weepin' all alone
The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair"
[Chorus]
Shifty Henry
a fiddle and a cracked guitar
They get their kicks from an old fruit jar
They do the boogie to an old square dance
The woods are full of couples looking
small faces unbound
Round the squares, huddled in storms
Some laughing, some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes, and black limousines
Some living,
There's a lynching in the square
You will have to join us
Everyone's going to be there
We're setting up the truss
Once there were solutions
Now
(The happy little birds, flap, flap happy)
(Sunshine everywhere, and everybody's happy)
(As a square at the fair, hoy, hoy)
All the days are
A buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air
The monkey thought that ev'rything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his
Ho, ho, hey hey hey ho hey
It was down in Big Kid's barroom
On a corner beyond the square
Everybody drinking liquor
The regular crowd was there
I
rocking bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holding hands
You're so square baby, I don't care
Baby, I don't care baby, I don't care
Well there were three gates in the east
Three gates in the west
Three gates in the north
Three gates in the south
Twelve gates to the city all square
as the Shareef had cleared the square
They began to wail
Shareef don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah, rock the Casbah
Shareef don't like it
Rockin' the Casbah,
to shine here
Deal with many women but treat dimes fair
And I'm bigger than the city lights down in Times Square
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I don't know what
window shopping
All around the square.
Little old lady, time for tea
Here's a kiss, two or three,
You're just like that little old lady,
I hold dear
I walked through a county courthouse square
On a park bench an old man was sitting there
I said, your old courthouse is kinda run down
He said,
Whoa, wait a minute, bitch, let me lie here
20/20 hindsight in my side mirror
Every year, you drop the ball like Times Square
My hair trigger whenever
The homeless problem...
Good looks and...
Die violent...
Tiananmen Square today...
To the adults to teach the children...
A pain reliever...
sing my mango song
Mango
Take the mango to the square
Try to sell the mango there
If I do not sell it, then
Take it back and try again
Everybody, now
the street
Old Bill or the outlaw would die.
Slowly Bill slid from the saddle
And started to make his advance
The sun hit the old ranger square in the eyes
the square,
Then they headed down for a landing in you know where.
Casey Jones, was a working for the nation.
Casey Jones, with his orders in his hand.
Casey
he, Ali Ababwa
That physique! How can I speak
Weak at the knee
Well, get on out in that square
Adjust your veil and prepare
To gawk and grovel and stare
don't believe you know how to be on the square
Now go on and have your fun and if you must
But before I have another man that I cannot trust
I'd rather
small faces unbound
Round the squares, huddled in storms
Some laughing, some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes, and black limousines
Some living,
