I’m Still Here - Live

[spoken]
Yes, the last time I did a concert here in New York it was Central Park, 27 years ago.
So a lot has happened since then.

[sung]
Good times and bum times
I've seen them all and, my dear
I'm still here
Gold statues sometimes
Sometimes a kick in the rear
But I'm here

Now, one day you're hailed for blazing trails
Next day you're nailed for fingernails
Either they cheer or they jeer
But I'm here

I've hеard them say, "Songwriting, acting, producing
What makes her think that shе can?"
Or better yet, "Songwriting, acting, producing
What does she think, she's a man?"

One day a Tony
Tuesday you're top of the bill
So I'm here
Wednesday you're over the hill
But I'm here

Now I've kept my clothes and kept my space
I've kept my nose to spite my face
Still once you say you won't
Keep your place loud and clear

Once you announce you're directing
All you hear is

Everybody says don't, everybody says don't
Everybody says don't, it isn't right
Don't, it isn't nice
Everybody says don't, everybody says-

Don't tell me not to live
Just sit and putter
Life's candy and the sun's
A ball of butter
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

Don't tell me not to fly
I simply got to
If someone takes a spill
It's me and not you
Who told you you're allowed to rain on my parade?

I'll march my band out
I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out
Your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it
Hat, sir, I guess I didn't make it

Get ready for me, love
'Cause I'm a comer
I simply gotta march
My heart's a drummer
Don't bring around a cloud to rain on my parade

I'm gonna live and live now
Get what I want, I know how
One roll for the whole shebang
One throw, that bell will go clang
Eye on the target and wham
One shot, one gun shot, and bam

Hey, look at me world, here I am

I'll march my band out
I'll beat my drum
And if I'm fanned out
Your turn at bat, sir
At least I didn't fake it, hat, sir
I guess I didn't make it

Get ready for me, love
'Cause I'm a comer
I simply gotta march
My heart's a drummer
Nobody, no, nobody is gonna rain on my parade

Thank you.
