82. Jealous Guy 2009


The devil that was once in me
Is not what I want to be
The Jealous Guy
From the year 1963.
With all to our name
And yet you pray
Lord don't let me hurt you
One more day.

I cheated and disposed
Alienating my spouse.
I'm a Jealous Guy
In 1974.
The things I have done
My love;
Lead me to believe
You and he are not for me.

So I loved you and left you
We fell apart.
Maybe it was me,
Maybe it was doomed from the start.
To be a Jealous Guy
Is not what we wanted to transpire.

In the year 1985 I've been long gone
The pro peace unions did me wrong.
I loved what I'd done,
I could have went on.
But alas, it was not be.
Though I'll be remembered in twenty fifteen
And beyond....
It's been so long.

The rights of a man show
That the means of the man.
Don't carry you home.
