Reggie's Plateau
No kinder soul Did i ever know Or would have sought to trouble Had i somewhere else to go You are charity, charity to me You are blessed with charity Trustful friend, when i’m in need again Self sufficient working mentor As sweet as the word please These streets are rugged And have tolled me back to you again I have nothing, nothing have i lost But my pride, and now that is yours. Set me on your couch, so warm and soft My feet will stand again, when they can or must Till then could you open up A can of beans, and a nice cold beer Oh, but the world is cold too Buddy, i’ll drink to you And your warm heart that houses me From vagrancy. i decree I’ll protect you from anybody but the police Yeah! i’ll do anything to you… Wait! no! i mean I’ll do anything for you not anything to you So don’t bring up the past, unless it’s for laughs Didn’t i teach you not to hold grudges I was on a different plateau You are just too decent, you would never know Some bad men from down south Were trying to take me out For what they say i owe them And i know you are more forgiving Hey, i was on a different plateau You would never understand You always said yes, you just give and give You never ask And would you have caught on any other way Yeah things could have gotten worst Had i not gotten to you first Man, these streets are for rodents And i even owe them But my gratitude is always with you I’ll never take offence To your hesitance Hey, i was on a different plateau When i stole your collectibles But i’ll pay you back my friend Before you stop ageing You’ll never trust me the same But you will trust me again
