I was a sailor

When my heart bled dry

Woke up with nothing

Underneath suburban skies

Became a soldier

In a far-war-thrill

Oil and dollars

Nearly got me killed

Oh yeah

Caught in the middle of the black and blue

My heart weighs heavy every time I think of you

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can say?

Oooh, oooh

A little something so I know you're alright

It's alright

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can do?

Oooh, oooh

A little something just to make you feel right

It's alright

She is a dancer on a broadway show

Says I can make it

But it's wearing me out

And I feel so low

I come with nothing

But my conscience is clear

Your superstition seems to strangle the world

But it's all fear

He said

It's not real

Stuck for a reason and I don't know why

My heart feels heavy every time you pass me by

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can say?

Oooh, oooh

A little something so I know you're alright

It's alright

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can do?

Oooh, oooh

A little something just to make you feel right

It's alright

Oooh, oooh

Oooh, oooh

So let me see that smiling face

Cause nothing ever takes your place

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can say?

Oooh, oooh

A little something so I know you're alright

It's alright

Oooh, oooh

Is there something I can do?

Oooh, oooh

A little something just to make you feel right

It's alright
