All the leaves are green
All my friends are gone
Im livin in my hometown
I can barely get along
I feel sorry for myself
Thats an easy thing to do
I feel sorry for the world
I feel sorry for you
Yes I am a pitiful sight
I cant even get one thing right
Chorus:
I know just what its like
To be ridin in the rumbleseat
Yes I know just what its like
To be a big time rider in the rumbleseat
Well I could have a nervous breakdown
But I dont believe in shrinks
I should be drunker than a monkey
But I dont like to drink
Call up some girls
But Im afraid of the phone
Im always talkin to myself
I guess Im never alone
Am I the only one that feels this way
Id buy myself some stylish clothes
But I sure hate to pay
Chorus:
I know just what its like
To be ridin in the rumbleseat
Yes I know just what its like
To be a big time rider in the rumbleseat
The sun is coming up
Just goin to bed
I combed my hair with my pillow
Still got some dreams left
Tomorrow is a new day
Gonna make these dreams come true
Im gonna believe in myself
Ill tell you what Im gonna do
Im gonna stop puttin myself down
Im gonna turn my life around
Ill be ridin high
With my feet kicked up in the rumbleseat
Yeah well go for a drive
And well be singin shotgun from that rumbleseat
Yes Ill blow you a kiss
And well be ridin big time in my rumbleseat
