Lyrics
POORLY READ by Richard C. Tollini (Kluso) © 2009
I feel I am poorly read
now how can I write when I am poorly read
Miles of waste and too little haste
Half a cent and I'm still poorly read
Well it seems I am lucky in wed
And who can write they're lucky in wed ... A life without sorrow or misery not so lucky to be lucky in wed
And they all say now my momma no raise no fool
And try as I might it gets stuck in my head So I can't find the words
Because I'm still poorly read
I'm poorly read
Well you know I'm not exactly dead may be a little dry but not exactly dead
now I've had my share of savior fare so you can see I'm not exactly dead
And I have no desire to bask in my ol' glory days
Like a soak in a tub long gone tepid So I can't find the words
Because I'm still poorly read
I 'm poorly read (..now somebody gimme a book y'all)
I feel I am poorly read now how can I write when I am poorly read
Miles of waste and too little haste Half a cent and I'm still poorly read
Well you know I'm not exactly dead may be a little dry but not exactly dead
now I've had my share of savior fare but you can see I'm still poorly read
And they all say now my momma no raise no fool
And try as I might it gets stuck in my head So I can't find the words
Because I'm still poorly read
I'm poorly read
I don' know no no no
no no no no
I don' know nah.. nah .. nah.. nah .. nah
