about

Rockin' Bob is still alive, as far as we know

lyrics

(Am-G-C-F)

People don't you know

I'm gonna kill myself

tomorrow?

(2)

(Em-C-Dm)

So I'll have to keep singing

so tomorrow never comes.

if I play this song every night

i'll never see the deadline

Yeah, i'll keep movin' the deadline.


People don't ya know

you can see me play tomorrow?

Even if I don't

have a booked show,

somewhere i'll be singin.

I have to sing every day.

Even if no one's listenin I know it's the only way.

Yeah, music makes me have to stay.


People don't you know

if you sing this tomorrow

I'll live forever,

if you keep playin my songs? I know

they're all I can give you

for after i'm gone.

I don't want children so that's all that's left of me when I pass on.

Yeah my songs are all that's left when I pass on


People don't you know

when you sing you're never old?
