Текст песни Getting By, High, and Strange - Kris Kristofferson

New York City was a stich in time when I stood all I could of LA
Patchin′ up the pieces of my tangled mind diggin' somethin′ different every day yeah
Soon as I was better I was movin' on gettin' it together gettin′ good and gone
And by (gettin′ by) high (good and high) and strange (gonna get some strange)

New ain't nothin′ but a state of mind
Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind
I′ll take anything that I can find anyway anyhow anywhere anytime
I'll keep livin′ till the day I die as long as I can get it up for one more try
Gettin' by (gettin' by) high (good and high) and strange (gonna get some strange)

(Gonna get some strange)
New ain′t nothin′ but a state of mind
Keeps a man from missin' what he left behind
I′ll take anything that I can find anyway anyhow anywhere anytime
I'll keep livin′ till the day I die as long as I can get it up for one more try
Gettin' by (gettin′ by) high (good and high) and strange (gonna get some strange)
(Gettin' by good and high) and strange (gonna get some strange)
