Hey, I Get By

Why do I say

Hey, I get by

When people ask

How I make it so sly?

/

How do you get by?

They ask and I sigh,

Wouldn’t you rather

Know why I get by?

/

Well, what do you do

For a living? “I’m a writer”

And that pays your bills?

Why do I make a l living?

/

They all really want to know

And I would tell them all

You try only making a Giving,

Maybe people will pay for Living.

/

Hey, I get by

Hey,I never tried

Hey, but now I’ve cried

Shouts shattering all who lied

/8

Hey, now all will get by

Because those who lied will be tried

Helping Want to tie the world

So my giving will make all a living

/

Hey, I get by

Will not apply

With no Application,

No resume explaining why.

/

The man should give me a try

When I only make a giving

Then people pay for living

Now the money will tally up

/

More then a living

More galore then ever before

More that doesn’t ignore

All the poor who have no more

/

Sorry to all those slaves sore

Leaves them completely bored

Now there will be nothing I can’t afford

/

Why did I say

Hey I get by

When people asked

How I make it so sly?

/

Now I will only reply

“Don’t ask how, just ask why.”
