Lance Norris and The Dog Track Gravy - Poetry (Live)

I am just a common man
Words are not my style
And you are but a common girl
Ha, not by a mile
The things that I would say to you
If I only could
But whenever I get next to you
I get stiff as wood

That is not what I meant to say
It came out wrong
It's not so easy
To put your feelings in a song
I may not come home tonight
But at least I'll telephone
And if you wanted poetry
You should have read a poem

A poet would compare you
To a summer's day
He'd say you're a flower
But in a clever way
Well, I am not a clever man
This fact is well known
And if you wanted poetry
You should have read a poem

No, I am not a clever man
This fact's well known
And if you wanted poetry
You should have read a poem
