Shel Silverstein - Workin' It Out lyrics

rate me

Well I've been spendin' my life lookin' for a shoulder

To rest my head when the nights get colder

But the days are gettin' longer and I'm gettin' older

Been long time workin' it out

I been a long time workin' it out I been a long time workin' it out

I been a long time workin' it out I been a long time workin' it out

Now I got a little woman to scrub my floor

Right down the road I got me two or three more

And you know none of them knows about the one next door

I been a long time workin' it out

I been a long time workin' it out...

Well it was late one night when I stole a little money

I bought a couple of things and then gave them to my honey

And the judge said boy if you this that's funny

You got a long time workin' it out

I got a long time workin' it out...

[ guitar ]

Yeah well I look all around me and what do I see

The whole wide world got trouble like me

Between the taxes the missus and the deep blue sea

You'll be a long time workin' it out

We'll be a long time workin' it out...
