[Verse 1]
I know I can't hide this fear inside
Still, my friends understand
Things have worked out
Much as you had said

[Verse 2]
Ain't no mystery what I need
Is understanding
And your sweet sympathy
A steel string guitar and a little weed
And someone to keep me company
Someone to keep me company

[Chorus]
Down the alley and
Through the stage door
Sometimes I wonder
What I
What I do it for

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Down the alley and
Through the stage door
Sometimes I wonder
Just what I, what I do it for
[Outro]
Ain't no mystery what I need
Is understanding
And your sweet sympathy
A steel string guitar and a little weed
And someone to keep me company
Someone to keep me company
