Robert Earl Keen, Jr.
"Who'll Be Looking Out For Me"


What the hell is wrong with me?
I can't do nothing right
I sleep away the whole day long
I stay awake all night
Fightin' things that I can't see
And I never seem to win
Who'll be looking out for me
When I start giving in?

It's always hard to trust yourself
When everything goes wrong
It's hard to be with someone else
When you're feeling all alone
It's hard to find your sanity
When you can't find a friend
Who'll be looking out for me
When I start giving in?

When I say I can't stand no more
And throw away my dreams
Quit believing in myself -
Who'll believe in me?

I'm torn between my love for you
And the life I dreamed about
I don't know what I'm gonna do
If we can't work it out
I can't imagine how it'd be
To change the way it's been
Who'll be looking out for me
When I start giving in?

Who'll be looking out for me
When I start giving in?
