| Take this bread, if you need a friend
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| I ain’t got a lot, but all I got
|
| You’re welcome to it
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| My neighbor Odetta
|
| Came over to see if I was feeling better
|
| Every morning at 8 through the backyard gate
|
| And of all the pretty things she would bring
|
| There was nothing like that song she sang
|
| That could ease my sorry state
|
| She’d sing to me:
|
| Take this bread, if you need a friend
|
| 'Cause I’m alright, if you’re alright
|
| I ain’t got a lot, but all I got
|
| You’re welcome to it
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| Sha na na na na na
|
| lalalalalala la
|
| Whoa! |
| Take this bread.
|
| Sure thing, If I got bread you got bread
|
| And everybody in my company has got bread
|
| You look a little hungry
|
| I ain’t even that hungry, that’s how I look at it
|
| Butter side up, butter side down
|
| Doesn’t matter to me
|
| If you got a slice, that’s nice.
|
| I went for a walk, headlights in the dark
|
| The man was dying in a pick-up truck
|
| He took her from the wall, my parking lot
|
| And killed her by the river
|
| But the cops caught him in the guns
|
| And I said to him.
|
| Take this bread, if you need a friend
|
| 'Cause I’m alright, if you’re alright
|
| I ain’t got a lot, but all I got
|
| You’re welcome to it
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| Take this bread, if you need a friend
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| I ain’t got a lot, but all I got
|
| You’re welcome to it
|
| 'Cause I’m alright if you’re alright
|
| I’m alright if you’re alright |
