Friends I used to know are coming by
To ask me if my situation's high
'Cause sometimes I just stare at the sky
Up is down before Her crown I cry
CHORUS:
If you would just drop by sometime
If you would just drop by
If you can possible make it up sometime
I can be there if I try
The world world keeps spinnin' me 'round
Bringing me up and bringing me down
But I can't get there with my feet on the ground
Maybe I oughta start digging a hole around my feet on the ground
CHORUS
You know once in while as I sit and stare
I get the feeling that there's no one there
Look at me now as I roll off my chair
How did I know that a chair could be out where I stare?
CHORUS

Arlo Guthrie è un cantautore folk statunitense nato a Coney Island, New York, nel 1947. Figlio del celebre poeta e scrittore Woody Guthrie, Arlo ha ereditato la passione per la musica e il forte impegno sociale che caratterizzano l'opera del padre. La sua carriera musicale inizia negli anni '60 con un sound folk acustico influenzato dal movimento folk revival. Il suo successo internazionale arriva nel 1968 con il brano "Alice's Restaurant Massacree", una lunga ballata satirica che racconta la storia di un evento reale e diventa un inno contro la guerra del Vietnam. Guthrie è noto per le sue canzoni narrative, spesso di grande lunghezza, che trattano temi sociali, politici e ambientali. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano anche "Coming into Los Angeles", "City of New Orleans" e "The Motorcycle Song". Arlo Guthrie continua a esibirsi dal vivo e a registrare nuovi album, rimanendo un'icona del folk americano.
