I've been tryin' to write this song
I've been tryin' all night long
But the words all come out wrong
Maybe it's 'cause my brain is gone
<pause> or maybe...
Chorus:
(He's got the tin man blues)
I've got the tin man blues
Feels like lead in my shoes
(He's got the tin man blues)
I've got the tin man blues
Baby, I've got some news
(He's got the tin man blues)
You know the robots when they came
They tried to make us all the same
(He's got the tin man blues)
With their iron claws they stole my brain
With their electric jowls they howl insane
<Chorus>
(He's got the tin man blues)
Long time ago I had a band
Then the 'bots came upon this land
(He's got the tin man blues)
We tried to stop 'em, me an' the three
We could not do it, now you can see
<Solo>
(He's got the tin man blues)
Thought we could kill 'em but 'stead
Turned 'round, my band was dead
(He's got the tin man blues)
What I 'member is kinda hazy
Somebody, tell me I ain't crazy
<Chorus>
(He's got the tin man blues)
I've got the tin man blues
Feels like lead in my shoes
(He's got the tin man blues)
What I 'member is kinda hazy
Somebody, tell me I ain't crazy
<fade> (Mr. E. you ain't crazy)
