On A Turntable

(album: Say It Out Loud - 2016)

My fridge ain't broken
But my beer ain't cold
My body's aching, I'm not even old
Police are coming
But I did nothing wrong
And I sit here singing
But I don't have a song

Never had much, grew up with nothing
But the music always meant something
I've been down and out
I've been on top of the world
The world that keeps on spinning on a turntable

Don't have a room, but I'm not homeless
I'm filled with doubt, but I'm not hopeless
The stakes are up, but I got nothing at stake
Got a wounded heart, but it won't break

Never had much, grew up with nothing
But the music always meant something
I've been down and out
I've been on top of the world
The world it keeps on spinning on a turntable
On a turntable
On a turntable
On a turntable

Traveled the world, but been nowhere
All I do is worry, but I got no cares
And I drink too much, but still feel sober
This record plays over and over

Never had much, grew up with nothing
But the music always meant something
I've been down and out
I've been on top of the world
The world it keeps on spinning on a turntable
On a turntable
On a turntable
On a turntable
Keep on spinning
Ya keeps on spinning
It keeps on spinning
Ya!
