Emin7

James Brown on the TAMI show            Same tape I've had for years
Tell me where I would go I              Ain't been out for years
Make records on my own                  Can't go out in the rain
I run _DEEP_THROAT_ again               it ran and ran for years

I sit in my old car                     same one I've had for years
Turn on the stereo                      It's played for years and years
Pick up the telephone                   I've listened here for years
Don't like the food I eat               the cans are running out

Emin7

Old battery's running down              It ran and ran for years
An Otis Redding song                    It's all I own (WHEN THE)
No one to talk to me                    I've listened here for years (WHEN THE)
Same food for years and years           I hate the food I eat (WHEN THE)
