Lyrics

IT?S ONLY ROY

by Rick Bell / Michael Lanning


I have a painting half done
I let the paint just run
I have a song here in mind
No design
I write a poem, it?s okay
Then throw it all away
Chisel a dance out of stone
Then go home

But, It?s Only Roy
What?s the point in getting serious
Yes, It?s Only Roy
Art is on vacation

I have an artistic bent
It?s like a coin that?s spent
On people deaf, dumb, and blind
They pay no mind
I wonder someday, I hope soon
Get my guitar in tune
And play that song here in my head
Before I?m dead

Look at it upside down or in a different light
Then it?s alright


(SOLO)
