"I'm Talkin' To You" lyrics

"I'm Talkin' To You"

I was high and mighty
For quite a long time
Doin' what comes natural
Just to try to unwind
Then I took the tumble
And promises were mumbled
The next thing that I know
I wake up in this jungle

And I feel my heart is pumpin'
To the beat of the band
Certain things happen
That I'll never understand
Everyone is glarin'
The saxophone is blarin'
I hope you understand
I just can't keep from starin'

I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you

I walk around town
With this dime store smile
Try to find a little comfort
Try to show a little style
Men try to fake me
And others try to take me
So I'm never really sure
Who is gonna break me

I'm sittin' in this bar
And I'm almost broke
Chokin' on emotion
And the cigarette smoke
As long as you can pay it
The band is gonna play it
I hope you understand
I feel I got to say it

I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you

Well, I am sittin' in this bar
And I'm almost broke
I'm chokin' on emotion
And the cigarette smoke
As long as you can pay it
The band is gonna play it
I hope you understand
But I feel

I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you
I'm talkin' to you
Yeah
