The Velvet Underground - Sheltered Life lyrics

[Lou Reed] Never been to London never been to France Never wore a sari never learned to dance Never walked down to 42nd street fairs Never smoked any filtered air Guess It's true what all the people say Gonna have to mend my old time ways Yeah i guess it's true Guess I led a sheltered life Never walked about on the streets at night Never got into an uptown fight Never smoked a hookah never saw a rug Couldn't even squash a beetle bug Guess it's true gonna have to change my ways Guess it's true what all the people say Oh I guess it's true I guess I lived a sheltered life [Kazoo solo] Never went to parties in a chauffeured car Never wore a top hat guess i won't get far Never learned to handle all the things that I've seen Maybe I'll grow up to be big and mean Guess It's true what all the people say Gonna have to change my old time ways Yeah i guess it's true Guess I led a sheltered life
