Phil Ochs - Pretty Smart on My Part lyrics



Pre>e

I can see him coming

Hes walking down the highway

With his big boots on

And his big thumb out

A

He wants to get me

He wants to hurt me

E/a/b a e

He wants bring me down

C#m

But sometime later when Im feel a little straighter

I will come across a stranger

Wholl remind me of the danger

A - b e

And then Ill run him over

A e

Pretty smart on my part

D a - e

Find my way home in the dark

I can see her coming

Sure looks pretty

Her breasts are bold

And her mouth is large

She wants to get me

She wants to hurt me

She wants to bring me down

But sometime later when I feel a little naked

Ill lead her to altar

Then Ill tie her all in leather

Then Im gonna whip her

Pretty smart on my part

Find my way home in the dark

I can see him coming

Hes walking through bedroom

With a switchblade knife

Hes looking at my wife

He wants to get me

He wants to hurt me

He wants to bring me down

But sometime later when I feel a little braver

Ill go hunting with my rifle

Where the wild geese are flying

Then Im gonna bag one

Pretty smart on my part

Find my way home in the dark

I can see them coming

Theyre training in the mountains

And they talk chinese

And they spread disease

They want to get me

They want to hurt me

They want bring me down

But sometime later when I feel a little safer

Well assasinate the president

And take over the government

And then were going to fry them

Pretty smart on my part

Find my way home in the dark /pre>
