Eric Heatherly Flowers On The Wall Lyrics

Flowers On The Wall Lyrics

I keep hearin' your concern about my happiness
But all that thought you've
given me is, conscience I guess
If I were walkin' in your shoes, I wouldn't
worry none
While you and your friends are worryin''bout me, I'm havin'lots
of fun

--Chorus
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me at
all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
Smokin'
cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me
I've nothin'
to do

Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town
As
long as I can dream it's hard to slow this swinger down
So please don't give
a thought to me, I'm really doin' fine
You can always find me here and havin'
quite a time

--Chorus
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother
me at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
Smokin'
cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me
I've nothin'
to do

It's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright
Anyway,
my eyes are not accustomed to this light
And my shoes are not accustomed to
this hard concrete
So I must go back to my room and make my day
complete

--Chorus
Countin' flowers on the wall, that don't bother me
at all
Playin' solitaire 'til dawn, with a deck of fifty-one
Smokin'
cigarettes and watchin' Captain Kangaroo
Now don't tell me
I've nothin'
to do
Now don't tell me
I've nothin' to do
