Hand To Mouth

(Album: The Flying Burrito Bros - 1971)

Hand to mouth, I've been living from hand to mouth
Days are getting longer, nights are getting colder
Since you've been gone
Hand to mouth, I've been living from hand to mouth
Don't you worry, honey, don't you worry
Somehow I get along

Moving is my little game, I never felt the taste of fame
Been on the road since I was just a child
Working here, then I'm gone, never in one place too long
It's enough to drive a poor man wild

I've been living from hand to mouth
I've been living from hand to mouth
Don't you worry, honey, don't you worry
Somehow I get along

I'm sorry for the times you've cried
They were the times I've laughed and lied
I really didn't know how much I cared
And now I wish to spend more time
To keep your love and ease your mind
There's nothing quiete the same when it's not shared
