Don’t Bother Asking Me
I been walking out in the sun
The reason is my old car don’t run
Busted windshield, four flat tires
One day I just up and set the damned thing on fire
Don’t bother asking me I wouldn’t tell you if I knew
I don’t know why I do what I do, I just do
I been writing all these songs
Believed I was done, I was wrong
So I got me an old mandolin
I hit this chord and then I up and hit it again
Don’t bother asking me I wouldn’t tell you if I knew
I don’t know why I do what I do, I just do
For heaven’s sake, for crying out loud
The sun just went behind the clouds
Now you can’t tell me I don’t care
It’s just I’d rather cast a spell than say a prayer
Don’t bother asking me I wouldn’t tell you if I knew
I don’t know why I do what I do, I just do
