Now the evening sun is goin' down
Black shadows covering dusty ground
But I never thought I'd be the kind of man
But I know that I am.
But I never thought I'd be a junky
Fixin' up holes and shootin' my time away.
Early morning sun leaves me behind
Shatters my body burns my mind
But I never thought I'd be the kind of man
But I know that I am.
But I never thought I'd be a monkey
Climbing up trees and lost on a cannibal isle.
If I should wake up in some other place
White Heap staring at my lonely face
But I never thought I'd be the kind of man
To be caught inside a jam.
But I never thought I'd be a donkey
Pullin' a weight that's driving me to the ground.
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Help me, baby.
But I never thought I'd be the kind of man, ah-ah-ha
But I never thought I'd be a junky, yeah
But I never thought I'd be a monkey
But I never thought I'd be a donkey, yeah.
Uh, oh.
That's right.
