SO STONED AND LONELY live at Tai Hen

Original by Robert Napier with Lyrics by Sam Favata

Lyrics:

Ain't got no money, ain't got no girl
Ain't got a friend in this whole wide world
All I've got is this violin for sale

I used to play in all the symphony halls
Rubbed my elbows with stars, at the Governor's Ball
Now I'm down on my luck, need a buck, violin for sale.

Oh, all I ever wanted, was to make first chair
In a well-respected orchestra, and I think it's fair
To say I threw it all away on Girls & Booze & Reefer
I shoulda listened to Mom, "Livin' clean is much cheaper."

Ain't got regrets, all I've got is a smile
I made some quick cash, I'm in the black, for a little while
So glad, you saw my ad & you bought my violin for sale
(that's alright, I still got this ol' guitar)

{solo}

Oh you can save your pity for some other poor schmuck
Because I'm much better off without that fiddle to pluck
All it ever brought me, was woe & misery
Besides, the girlies prefer guitar, and well...ain't nothin' free

So here I am, got a regular gig
I traded Mahler for Jimi Hendrix, and I'm glad I did
Best day of my life, when I sold that violin
Best day of my life, when I sold that violin
Best day of my life, when I sold that violin, for sale....
