The Shape I'm In

I've got a number on a napkin

A pounding in my head

It takes everything I've got

To crawl out of bed

I lost a hell of a woman

Freedom coked me on the chin

But I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in

The sun came up again this morning

I got a call from a long lost friend

Planed this little road trip down in New Orleans

It ain't much but it beats where I've been

Yeah, I'm doing alright

I'm doing alright

I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in, yeah

Well, I'm getting better

At barely getting by

When I look at her picture

I don't break down and cry

And all this time on my hands

It's getting easier to spend

'Cause I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in

The sun came up again this morning

And took my own past back for a spin

Now it had rained, it ain't always pouring

And I'm learning how to live again

Yeah, I'm doing alright

I'm doing alright

I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in

Yeah, I'm doing alright

Yes, I'm doing alright

Yeah, I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in

Yes, I'm doing alright

Yeah, I'm doing alright

Yeah, I'm doing alright

For the shape I'm in
