AL JARREAU YOU DON´T SEE ME LYRICS

It has occurred to me that you don't see me (repeat)

You don't see me when i'm trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now (repeat)

When I was walking, patting my feet on the pavement
Really, truly trying to find a gig
Did you stand up and speak out in my favor?
Cold desperation, she's a devil in bed
Scratching 'til my bones are bare
Pills and needles are all I've left to savor

You don't see me when i'm trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now (repeat)

We were walking and I told you
Of how my shoes were wearing thin
You took your surplus and traded for a favor
Now i'm demented and i'm burned unto a cinder
Forty hours buys a grocery bag for trash
I took a pistol and I made myself a sinner
Will this universe, my god, understand my song?

You don't see me--you don't see me
I'm tired of trying to attract your attention

You don't see me when i'm trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now (repeat)

It has occurred to me that you don't see me (repeat)

You should go right ahead--go ahead
I know you're going to go ahead
You're going to do what you're going to do
I see you, I watch you
You take the money and run

Even got the groceries and runnin', too
You're running and hiding and selling junk bonds
And throwing factories away
And I can't find no job

I'll beat your mama, I'll beat your daddy
I'll go to jail
It don't make no mothafugging difference what happens to me
Going to be there in my own time, in my own way
'cause I found out you don't see me
You don't see me
I'm, i'm in your mirror

You don't see me
You don't see me when i'm trying to do right
Maybe you can see me now
