Self Centered Blues Lyrics - Natural Child

Daddy came down with a broken back 

I don't believe he's gonna make it back 

Momma went looking for something to do 

And I'm left here with self-centered blues 

They don't seem to go away 

Should've saved my money when I was young 

But I just kept looking for a bit of fun 

Then the days went by and the years just flew 

And I'm all caught in self-centered blues 

They don't seem to go away 

I sure made a lot of friends 

And I watched a lot of good things come to an end 

Without no water those seeds never grew 

And I'm left here with self-centered blues 

I had a friend, he lost track 

He turned a corner and he didn't look back 

Didn't check the signs, didn't see the road 

Now the self-centered blues is all he knows 

They don't seem to go away
