I devoted my life to sing for truth,
But in my spare time all I want to do
Is look at you, Alice.

I think I’ve met my match, Alice no clever words this time.
Ma said son don’t stray away from home;
Son said ma now that I’ve seen her
I know I have to roam.

When I feel low I know where to go,
Not to the bank or the Gulf of Mexico-
Straight to her room and I tell her my fears.
The way she listens I know she’s understood for years.
