Shot At Me Song Lyrics
Shot At Me by David Crosby I was having coffee in my favorite place
When this haunted guy with a haunted face
Said he just got back from the, the Middle East
So I said, "What's it really like in the belly of the beast?"
And he said
"You got to walk on water and float on air
And go to sleep where you make your bed
And make your bed where you won't get hit
Hide your fire, but keep it lit
Burn the stuff that you can't use
Make a map that you can't lose
Head for the woods and laugh all the way
Nobody shot at me today"
So I said to him, "You've had quite a time
Tryna find a place to ease your mind
It must feel so good to be home, free
And get right back to the way it used to be"
And he said
"You got to fight your lifeline and pick up your thread
And tell your story before you're dead
Tried making sense
The men give up
It'll come to you right when you stop
Burn the stuff that you can't use
Make a map that you can't lose
Head for the woods and laugh all the way
Nobody shot at me today"
