Woke up late this morning
Found out my people gone away from me
(Nobody anywhere I looked)
Woke up late one morning
Found out my people gone away
Spinning ‘round in circles
Oh how I hate to be alone
(It's no good)

Looking all around me
Trying to find out where ev'rybody's gone
(Can't find anybody)
Looking all around me
Trying to find out where the Hell ev'rybody's gone
(Can't find anybody now)
Spinning ‘round in circles
Oh how I hate to be alone
(Can't stand being all alone)

If I could have been a carpenter
Could have run around looking for things to fix
Way back a long time ago if I could have been a carpenter
I could have found a lot of things to fix
(Fix ‘em all up now)
Didn't end up bein' no carpenter
And that's why they call me
