J.J. Cale

John Weldon "J. J." Cale (December 5, 1938 – July 26, 2013) was an American guitarist, singer, and songwriter. Though he avoided the limelight, his influence as a musical artist has been acknowledged by figures such as Mark Knopfler, Neil Young, Waylon Jennings, and Eric Clapton, who described him as one of the most important artists in rock history. He is one of the originators of the Tulsa sound, a loose genre drawing on blues, rockabilly, country, and jazz. In 2008, Cale and Clapton received a Grammy Award for their album The Road to Escondido. more »

Don't ask me no questions I'll tell you no lies
I was born in a freight train passin' by
My mother was poor, my father too
I'll take anything I can get from you

I did not make this old world, 
I'm just livin' here too
Been shot three times runnin', cut with a knife
I got four children working, ain't got no wife

Well, the landlord is callin', I'm overdue
If you don't watch my fingers 
I'll put the touch on you
I did not make this old world, 

I'm just livin' here too
I didn't make this old world, 
I'm just livin' here too

Turn around slowly, look behind
I'm comin' from nowhere and not by design
I didn't make this old world, I'm just livin' here too
I didn't make this old world, I'm just livin' here too
