Livin' Legend - Bobby Bare
Lyrics by：Shel Silverstein
Composed by：Shel Silverstein
Yeah it sure it sweet to be a livin' legend
Mister can you use an old folksinger
Would your patrons like some old time soul
Can you dig the foggy mountain breakdown
I'm sorry I don't play no rock 'n' roll
But I can make 'em cry with Molly darling
They'll sing along on row your boat ashore
I'll play until the dawn and when the crowd is gone
Mister I'll be glad to sweep your floor
You should have been in New York back in '60
Hey wasn't I a star there for awhile
But New York messed up my head and
I got strung out on reds
And Bobby Dylan he went and copped my style
But didn't we make 'em cry with Molly darling
They sung along on row your boat ashore
And the street life sure is fun when you're twenty one
But Mister I ain't twenty one no more
So I take the love of girls who still remember
And I take the help from them that care to give
And I swap my songs for sandwiches and shelter
'Cause even livin' legends have to live
But I can still can make 'em cry to Molly darling
They'll sing along on row your boat ashore
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
Ya'll not singin' now
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
Everybody sing
Hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
Michael row the boat ashore hallelujah
