Im Tired Joey Boy — текст песни (Tom Petty)

Im tired joey boy while youre out with the sheep

My life is so troubled I cant go to sleep

And I would walk myself out but the streets are so dark

I will wait til the morning and walk in the park



Yeah life is so simple when one isnt home

And Im never complaining when theres work to be done

Oh Im tired joey boy with the makings of men

I would like to be cheerful again



And ambition will take you and ride you too far

And conservatism will bring you to boredom once more

So go out by the river watch the stream flow

Recall all those dreams you once used to know

The ones youve forgotten that took you away

To pastures not greener but meaner



Yeah the love of the simple is all that I need

I have no time for schism or lovers of greed

Go up to the mountain go up to the glen

Where silence will touch you and heartbreak will mend
