David Crosby - Shot at Me lyrics

[Verse 1] I was having coffee in my favorite place When this haunted guy with a haunted face Said he just got back from the, the Middle East So I said, "What's it really like in the belly of the beast?" [Chorus] And he said "You got to walk on water and float on air And go to sleep where you make your bed And make your bed where you won't get hit Hide your fire, but keep it lit Burn the stuff that you can't use Make a map that you can't lose Head for the woods and laugh all the way Nobody shot at me today" [Verse 2] So I said to him, "You've had quite a time Tryna find a place to easе your mind It must feel so good to be home, free And get right back to thе way it used to be" [Chorus] And he said "You got to fight your lifeline and pick up your thread And tell your story before you're dead Tried making sense The men give up It'll come to you right when you stop Burn the stuff that you can't use Make a map that you can't lose Head for the woods and laugh all the way Nobody shot at me today"
