Bruce Cockburn - Called Me Back lyrics

rate me

My so-called buddy never called me back

called me back, called me back

my so-called buddy never called me back

I don't know what to think about that

I coulda been croaking on the floor of my flat

floor of my flat, floor of my flat

I coulda been croaking on the floor of my flat

the bugger never called me back

Then again he could have troubles himself

troubles himself, troubles himself

then again he could have troubles himself

I better try him once more

He could be going through a bitter divorce

bitter divorce, bitter divorce

he could be going through a bitter divorce

or quadruple bypass

Maybe his mother ran afoul of the law

afoul of the law, afoul of the law

maybe his mother ran afoul of the law

you never know with that gang

He coulda slid into a society scene

society scene, society scene

he coulda slid into a society scene

and left his old friends behind

My so-called buddy never called me back

called me back, called me back

my so-called buddy never called me back

I don't know what to think about that

the bugger never called me back

I better try him once more
