GmWell, it ain't your job for to tBbake care of me
I don't Gmwant your damn Cmhelp anyFway
Take your Gmeyes to the rFoad for it's Gmtime now to go
There's Gma world you lefCmt waiting
And it Gmain't your job to tBbake care of me
And you Gmknow it don't Cmbother me Fnone
Sure as Gmeach flower Fblooms
Every Gmflower is doomed
And we'll Gmmeet in the Fbelly of the Bbworm
Through thGme rain and snow long
And BbI watched you grow
As your Gmshoulders rise Cmup to the Fsky
Don't Gmdespairing it Fall
Though I Gmstumble and fall
Always Gmknew, couldn't keCmep up, forever
And it Gmain't your job to Bbtake care of me
And you Gmknow that it's Cmbetter this Fway
We'll Gmgo your way and Fmine
For you'rGme still in your prime
And I'm Gmjust an old fooCml getting older
And it Gmain't your job to tBbake care of me
Pack youGmr bag, fill your Cmboots, don't look Fback
Go catch Gmup with your Fquest
Leave me Gmhere for to rest
And we'll Gmmeet in the Fbelly of the Bbworm
Through thGme rain and snow long
And BbI watched you grow
As your Gmshoulders Cmrise up to tFhe sky
Don't Gmsuccumb to dFespair
Fill your Gmlungs with the air
And we'll Gmmeet in the Fbelly of the Bbworm
