Till the Swelling Goes Down
A long, long time ago,
I was a carefree guy
but now i just wanna hurt somebody
when the levee is dry
I told you that i'm sorry, baby
so get up off the the ground
put some ice on that, darling, till the swelling goes down
People, you weren't there,
so you didnt see
the way she was laughing,
she was laughing at me
i'm a folksinging legend,
not some bitter old clown-
put some ice on that, darling, till the swelling goes down
