Al Kooper - A Possible Projection Of The Future lyrics

Kooper God helped Moses so I know he wont let me down I'm at the bottom of my ladder And it weren't no easy way down All the folks that used to be around me You wont find em knockin at my door And you never know who your friends are Til they don't come round no more, Lord My money ran out last evenin' My woman she ran out today And no one gives a f** what I'm singing Which makes it even harder to say I've worked almost all my lifetime makin music as best I can But you never know who your friends are Til they don't come round again Now I'm just an old nothin' with memories of fifty years I started with The Blues Project Spent some time with Blood Sweat & Tears My life was filled with music My heart was drenched in sound And if you go see an old movie You might hear me in the background These old eyes don't see too good no more These days they say that I'm deaf My hands are so soft & wrinkled So let me play you all that I got left, Oh Lord
