Why Me When things go wrong & you keep on tryin' But the technical don't work out right You call up the lawyer, but the phone is busy & You don't get to sleep tonight Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? You jump in the car & you head for the highway But the gate sits some big oh-wee You find your hotline, but it heats up your last time & Friends own a luxury Why me? Why me? Why me? Why me? Bridge: I fought the pack off a silver dollar, but the silver just turned to gold I fought the law with a Dennis Holler, but they pulled me back away You find yourself in the midst of the crossroads With the lights all turning red Right in the pocket, right in the south The purse, it drops on your hand Why me? Why me? Why me? Oh why me? ("uh huh huh" scat singing) (Repeat bridge) Well, you go your way & I go my way The world keeps spinnin' 'round You got the answer in your big back-a pocket Just start puttin' in down Why me? Why me? Why me? Oh why me? I know, you know, why me?
