Текст песни Paintin' Signs - Eric Bibb

Spent a lot of time in my house
Pretendin′ I wasn't home
Bills and junk mail pilin′ up by the door
Sittin' at the window in a dream
Lyin' to myself, that′s for sure
See, what I was really doin′ - paintin' signs

Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin′
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street

Losin' weight an′ losin' my mind
One day at a time, oh lord
In the mirror face growin′ thinner
Foolin' myself but no one else
Peepin' through life′s blinds, skippin′ dinner
What I was really doin' - paintin′ signs

Soul on strike
Sorry closed
Gone fishin'
Back next week
Under repair
Out of order
Help wanted
Dead end street

Sittin′ at the window in a dream
Tellin' myself I was fine - lyin′
What I was really doin' - paintin' signs
