People As Crazy As Me
I lie on back and I look at the ceiling
My body's caressed by a cool summer breeze
I won't have no friends and I won't have no sweethearts
Unless they're as crazy as me
I might have been rich and I might have been famous
But I wouldn't follow the dreams
It went up a mountain and I stayed in the valley
With people as crazy as me
(He won't have no friends and he won't have no sweethearts
Unless they're as crazy as him)
[ guitar ]
You know nothing can get you if you ain't got nothing
And you ain't got hardly nobody to please
I've got friends a plenty they're better than enemies
But they're all as crazy as me
I might have been rich...
When they write it all down in the Big Book in heaven
They'll give us a cabin out under the trees
I'll lie on my back and stare at the ceiling
With people as crazy as me
I might have been rich...
Gente tan loca como yo
Me acuesto boca arriba y miro el techo
Mi cuerpo es acariciado por una fresca brisa de verano
No tendré amigos y no tendré amores
A menos que sean tan locos como yo
Podría haber sido rico y podría haber sido famoso
Pero no seguiría los sueños
Subieron a la montaña y me quedé en el valle
Con gente tan loca como yo
(Él no tendrá amigos y no tendrá amores
A menos que sean tan locos como él)
[ guitarra ]
Sabes que nada puede afectarte si no tienes nada
Y apenas tienes a nadie a quien complacer
Tengo muchos amigos, son mejores que enemigos
Pero todos son tan locos como yo
Podría haber sido rico...
Cuando lo escriban todo en el Gran Libro en el cielo
Nos darán una cabaña bajo los árboles
Me acostaré boca arriba y miraré el techo
Con gente tan loca como yo
Podría haber sido rico...
