Anyone Here In The Audience

(album: It Never Rains In Southern California - 1972)

Anyone here in the audience
With a pad that I can crash in
I'd really appreciate you letting me know
'Cause the gig is over soon
I've been out on the road for a couple of weeks
And we didn't take much cash in
It's raining outside and to tell you the truth
I've been locked out of my room

Do you care?
Do you pity the poor musician?
Don't you know
What it's like out on the road?
Don't you think
Don't you think I'm always wishin'?
Someone would stand up
And offer a hand up
And take me home?

Anyone here in the audience
Who can make a dish to fill me
I'd really appreciate you letting me know
Haven't eaten all day long
I've been out on the road for a number of weeks

And the greasy food is killing me
I'm hungry and tired and to tell you the truth
All my will to pay is gone

Do you care?
Do you pity the poor musician?
Don't you know
What it's like out on the road?
Don't you think
Don't you think I'm always wishin'?
Someone would stand up
And offer a hand up
And take me home?

Anyone here in the audience
With a heart that I can cling to
I'd really appreciate you letting me know
If you've got some love to spare
I've been out on the road for a number of weeks
And I've found no one to sing to
And I just need to know
Yes I just want to know
Is there anyone there'

Do you care?
Do you pity the poor musician?
Don't you know
What it's like out on the road?
Don't you think
Don't you think I'm always wishin'?
Someone would stand up
And offer a hand up
And take me home?

Someone would stand up
And offer a hand up
And take me home
