ry cooder - shrinking man lyrics
[verse 1]
well, it’s a change in the ocean, change in the sea
woke up one morning was a change in me
i put on my pants, my pants fell down
well, i put on my shoes and they fell off too
i looked in the mirror was nothin’ to see
that’s how it goes when you’re a shrinking man like me
[chorus 1]
worried man with a worried song
shrinking man ain’t gonna be here long
[verse 2]
well, sometimes i worry ’bout clothes, shrinking man’s gotta look good sometime
don’t need no sweatshop child puttin’ shoes on my feet this time
chained to a sewing machine, down in h-ll where the sun don’t shine
look as good as you can, but please don’t rob your fellow man
[refrain 2]
shrinking man, shrinking man
n0body was worried ’bout a shrinking man
[verse 3]
sometimes i worry ’bout food ’cause a shrinking man’s got to eat right sometime
i don’t need much and i don’t pay no starvation wage
to poor folks out on the poison ground, you don’t rob the land
when you’re just a little old shrinking man
[chorus 3]
shrinking man
n0body was worried ’bout a shrinking man
worried man with a worried song
shrinking man ain’t gonna be here long
[verse 4]
sometimes i worry ’bout prayer ’cause a shrinking man better be a prayin’ man
once i had a dream that was working, i had good ideas, i made big plans
now i’m just like a leaf in the wind that’s blowing, i hope king jesus can understand
[chorus 3]
shrinking man, shrinking man
n0body was worried ’bout a shrinking man
worried man, a worried song
shrinking man ain’t gonna be here long
