The Shape I'm In (Live)

Go out yonder, peace in the valley

Come downtown, have to rumble in the alley

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Has anybody seen my lady

This living alone will drive me crazy

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Well, I'm gonna go down by the water

But I ain't gonna jump in, no, no, no

I'll just be looking for my maker

And I hear that that's where she's been, oh

Out of nine lives, I've spent seven

Now how in the world do you get to Heaven

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Well, I just spent 60 days in the jailhouse

For the crime of having no dough, oh Lord

Now here I am back out on the street

For the crime of having nowhere to go

Save your neck or save your brother

Looks like it's one or the other

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in

Now two young kids might start a ruckus

You know they feel you're trying to shuck us

Oh, you don't know the shape I'm in
