stephen sondheim - high life lyrics
my life is a slow life on the river
sleepy as a weepy willow tree
easy, ’cause i know life on the river
what’s the high life to a lowlife like me?
don’t like to shave
or wear a tie
just sit and wave
as the boats go by
when things go on
i write ’em down
lucky nothing ever goes down in this here town
love my easy-go life on the river
counting beer cans floating out to sea
leave me be, i got a job
listening to those engines throb
learning how to be a slob for free
and the high life isn’t no life for me
goodbye to a houseboat on a river
h-llo to a boathouse in palm beach
gonna leave my houseboat on the river
gonna live a life as high as i can reach
i’ll smoke cigars
and put on shoes
and count the cars
that they never used
she’ll tell her life
i’ll write it out
just hope that her life is too d-mn dull to write about
so long to my neighbors on the river
so long to their warm and friendly smile
gonna take a brand new job
learning how to be a sn0b
gonna be the same old slob in style
trading my life for the high life for a while
