John Mayall I Can`t Complain Lyrics

I Can`t Complain Lyrics

The taxman came knockin' on my door,

I said I already gave, he said he
wanted some more

Then my house burned down on a hot summer day,

When I saw the smoke clear, didn't know what to say,

But come what may,
I guess I'll be ok,

I can't complain



Got me a broken leg,
actin' like a fool,

Jumped off my balcony and missed the pool

Now
my doctor's tellin' me that I'm eatin' too much fat

Sayin' high
cholesterol just ain't where it's at (not how can Mr. Mo just aim where it's
at)

They ask me any day, tell you what I say

I can't complain



My car's a lemom now (not 11 now), it's just broken down,

For
the 100th time, I can't get across town

I never got invited to a Grammy
show,

If my luck ever changes, I really don't know

Ask me any day,
tell you what I say,

I can't complain



It's how you look at
it, your attitude

You can't get through life without gratitude

You
can always make a list of what 's going wrong,

But your list of blessings
will be 2 as long



Don't know if this song will ever make the
chart,

Don't know what machines are gonna fall apart

But I know for
certain I can talk about the blues

One thing's for sure, you know I paid
my dues

Ask me any day, tell you what I say,

I can't complain
