Loudon Wainwright III
I’m Alright (Live)
I woke up this morning, I didn't feel that bad
Last night was definitely not one of the worst I'd ever had
Ate a nice dinner, drank a few drinks
I didn't miss you baby no matter what you think
Went back to my hotel room I went straight to bed
Didn't moan, I didn't cry and I did not wish I was dead
I'm alright, Hey, I'm alright
Yes, I'm alright baby, yes
I'm alright without you
It's the happy blues!
I woke up this morning, I didn't have the blues
So I pulled on my tube socks, I laced up my running shoes
Went up to the reservoir to jog a mile or two
I didn't think about our love and I wasn't missing you
Went back to my hotel roomI took a few phone calls
Clean sheets on a made up bed and artwork on the walls
I'm fine, thank you very much
Yes, I'm alright baby, yes
I'm alright without you
All right!
One chord, ladies and gentlemen!
I woke up this afternoon and I sat up in the bed
There was a gnawing in my gut and a poundin' in my head
So I went into the bathroom, to the medicine chest
There was razor blades and sleepin' pills and all the rest
But I was in control baby I was so relaxed
I found myself my dental floss, my favorite kind - unwaxed
Hey I'm alright, I got the floss, baby
Yes, I'm alright baby yes
I'm alright without you
