From the recording Midnight at the Hilltop Hotel

Tough old world.

Lyrics

In My World
Well, there was a lady.
Someone's daughter.
She had a child.
Fulfilled her needs.
Gave her loving,
And she fed her dreams.
Now her baby does a romance
With a dirty rotten needle.
(Chorus)
Welcome to this world
God it's huge.
It’s bigger than me
And it's bigger than you.
It's bigger than all of us.
Got nothin' free.
And the prophets rock and contemplate
Man, the broken lovers hesitate.
And in my world -
Government is guilty.
Well there was a man.
Someone's son.
Told his mama
All the things he'd done.
I've freed the guilty'
Oh man, I've enslaved the free.
And the lines between black and white
Are getting awful gray to me.
(Chorus)
Welcome to this world
God it's huge.
It’s bigger than me
And it's bigger than you.
It's bigger than all of us.
Got nothin' free.
And the prophets rock and contemplate
The broken lovers hesitate.
And in my world -
Justice can be purchased.
Well there was a child.
Someone's kid.
The lord looked down
Saw the things he did.
I love your hair, son.
But you're gonna suffer.
Now he listens to the Grateful Dead
And he dances in multi-color.
(Chorus)
Welcome to this world
God it's huge.
It’s bigger than me
And it's bigger than you.
It's bigger than all of us.
Got nothin' free.
And the prophets rock and contemplate
The broken lovers hesitate.
And in my world -
Jesus was a hippy.
Mary was a liar.
Welcome to my world.
You're welcome to it.
Welcome to my world.
Man, you're welcome to it.
Welcome to my world.
Man, you're welcome to it.
And the prophets rock and contemplate
The broken lovers hesitate.
And in my world -
I'm all done singin'.
