"Who Did You Think I Was" lyrics
John Mayer Trio Lyrics
"Who Did You Think I Was"
I got half a smile and zero shame
I got a reflection with a different name
Got a brand new blues that I can't explain
Who did you think I was?
Every mornin', when the day begins
I make up my mind, then change it back, again
I've been a shifter of the shape I'm in
Who did you think I was?
You got my number, but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?
Am I the one who plays the quiet songs?
Or is he the one who turns the ladies on?
Will I keep shining 'til my light is gone?
Who did you think I was?
You got my number, but I always knew the score
Who did you think I was?
Here is a line that you won't understand:
I'm half of a boy, but I'm twice the man
Carry the weight of the world in the palm of my hand
Who did you think I was?
Who did you think I was?
Thanks to Mary for adding these lyrics.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Charlie" All aboard, stitch in time
Get yours, got mine
In a minute I'll be there
Sit tight, get square
(Tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic-tic)
You can do it at the hippodrome
(One, one, one, one, one, one more)...
Jack Johnson - "Sunsets For Somebody Else" I know I've seen your face somewhere
Selling something, some big idea
I know I've seen that vacant stare
Selling sunsets for somebody else
You find yourself asking yourself
"What is any of it...
Mayer Hawthorne - "Back Seat Lover" I can't believe what you told me
You know that I'd never hit and tell
You got me right where you want me
With candy apples & sweet caramel
You know I won't say a word
Yeah we can keep it discreet...
Marc Broussard - "Hard Knocks" Didn't take nothing, that I didn't need
'Cause they didn't offer classes in what I wanted to be
They didn't offer manhood, responsibility
Had to learn it the hard way
Earned my degree in the streets...
