You've Had To Struggle, You've Had To

That Folk Music Led To Learning To Play, And Making Things Up Led To What Turns Out To Be The Most Lucrative Part Of The Music Business - Writing, Because You Get Paid Every Time That Song Gets Played.

Let The Disappointments Pass Let The Laughter Fill Your Glass Let The Illusions Last Until They Shatter Whatever You Might Hope To Find Among The Thoughts That Crowd Your Mind There Won't Be Many That Ever Really Matter.

So What I Do, More Than Play Any Instrument - I Mean, I Love To Play - But More Than That, I Write Songs. Songs That Are About Living, About What It's Like To Be Going Through All The Things That People Go Through In Life.

Do The Steps That You've Been Shown, By Everyone You've Ever Known, Until The Dance Becomes Your Very Own.

I'm Losing Touch With Reality And I'm Almost Out Of Blow. It's Such A Fine Line, I Hate To See It Go. Cocaine, Runnin' All 'round My Brain.
