Presbyterian Boy

(Album: Heroes - 1978)

I've been drinking a little too much
I've been accused of loosing my touch
And if I'm going to be totally honest
I've been going crutch to crutch
A mama's pride and joy
Another Presbyterian boy
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
I've been making some silly mistakes
I've been blowing some pretty good breaks
And if you wanna hear all there is
I'm a-wondering what in the world it takes
For a mama's pride and joy
Another Presbyterian boy
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
Oh Lord, I get the feeling
Sitting here spinning my wheels
Getting nowhere at all
In record time
Just in case you wonder
How the situation feels
It's nickle and dime
Only nickle and dime
I've been letting it slip away
Losing it day by day
Now all my friends are shaking their heads
And wondering what in the world to say
To a mama's pride and joy
Another Presbyterian boy
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
Oh Lord, I get the feeling
I'm sitting here spinning my wheels
Getting nowhere at all
In record time
Just in case you wonder
How the situation feels
Just nickle and dime
Only nickle and dime
I've been letting it slip away
I've been losing it day by day
Now all my friends are shaking their heads
And wondering what in the world to say
To a mama's pride and joy
Another Presbyterian boy
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
Out in the wide, wide world
Out on a limb
