Wasted Words Lyrics - Five Classic Albums - Allman Brothers Band

Can you tell me, tell me, friend, just exactly where I've been? 

Is that so much to ask I'll pay you back no matter what the task 

You seem really sure 'bout something I don't know, 

Take that load off, looks like chest's about to go 

Your wasted words already been heard, are you really god, yes or no? 

Well, all day and half the night you're walkin' round lookin' such a fright 

Good is it me or is it you? 

I'd make a wager and I'd hope you lose 

Time's gone, looks like Rome is 'bout to fall, 

Next time take the elevator, please don't crawl 

Your wasted words so absurd, are you really Satan, yes or no? 

Tell me now baby? 

Ooh hoo 

Oh 

Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior 

Every other Christmas I would practice good behavior 

That was then, this is now, don't ask me to be mister clean 

Baby, I don't know how 

Ring my phone 'bout ten more times, we will see, 

Find that broke down line and let it be 

Your wasted words will never be heard, go on home baby and watch it on TV
