Doug Sahm Lyrics

Doug Sahm lyrics

Give me a call

When yer strung out or when you're bored

Been so long and heavy

But now you think I'm ready

Lean on me, lean on me

Give it a try, it won't hurt

Leave it with the papers and the capers and the dirt



Had a friend who died today

Got a long distance call

Who knows what or when or how

But what I'd do to see his face now

Lean on me, lean on me

Wham bam, Doug Sahm

Get my brains from a garden plant



You ain't got the truth in the line

Stick with the ones who never 

Get put out by the fire



I never was one for pictures yeah

You could hang up on the wall

Start 'em up here in my head

Wait for them to fall

Let's go get wrong, real real gone

Raise a toast to the Polaroid ghost

And let some water fall



You ain't got the truth in the line

Stick with the ones who never

Get put out by the fire
