Strolling down the highway with my shoes in my hand

I don't talk much I'm a quiet man

Beauty and silence both run deep

And I'm running like crazy while you are asleep



You got news for me, I got nothing for you

Don't pin your blues on me

Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to



Last Monday night I saw a fight

Between Wednesday and Thursday over Saturday night

Tuesday asked me what was going on, I said

"Sunday's in the meadow and Friday's in the corn



You got news for me, I got nothing for you

Don't pin your blues on me

Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to



Hocus-pocus, maladjusted

Don't you think my tears get rusted

Steady losing means you ain't using

What you really think is right



You got news for me, I got nothing for you

Don't pin your blues on me

Just go ahead and do whatever you wish to



Oodles of light, what a beautiful sight

Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

Rays and beams of incredible dreams

And I am a quiet man



Oodles of light, what a beautiful sight

Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

Rays and beams of incredible dreams

And I am a quiet man



Oodles of light, what a beautiful sight

Both of God's eyes are shining tonight

Rays and beams of incredible dreams

And I am a quiet man
