The Jig Is Up (Live at Cornerstone 2001) Lyrics

[Spoken Intro]
This is a sweet song--written by our bass player, Mr. Mark Harmon, let's hear it for Mark!

[Verse 1]
I am a troubled man
Trouble is what I am
I am a troubled man
And I'll take all you can give me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I walk alone
Hand in hand with my trouble
But still nobody's home

[Chorus 1]
I'm in the poorhouse forever
I'm in the doghouse forever
And ever with you

[Verse 2]
A simple man
Simple is what I am
I am quite simply mad
And not particularly glad to be
You were a simple friend
I complicated you, then
I lost that simple friend
All complications unending

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I think alone
I could use some good help with my thinking
It's too far from home

[Chorus 2]
I could think of you forever
I could think of us together
But never mind

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
I am a lonely man
Lonely is what I am
Heartbroken, lonely
I think of you only
Are you with me, with me?

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I was never that smart
No, and I wasn't clever to think
I had hold of your heart

[Chorus 3]
I could break your heart forever
I could break mine and yours
Both right in two after

[Pre-Chorus 4]
I won't go gently into that bad earth
I will fight for you with all that is within me
And for all that it's worth

[Chorus 4]
Can I run to you forever?
'Cause if I can't run to you forever
How can I run to you now?

[Outro]
You live on my doorstep
Is there room in my house?
