i'm still trying to figure out what the deal was with the buffalo bills thing - it really did seem to be a burden to him

oh, i didn't eat right and i didn't drink right and i smoked just like a smokestack
and now life is so slow i don't know where to go i don't know what score i'm supposed to rack
i think this is where i say something crass and self-pitying
i think this is where i make up a song to sing
i got the not quite over with blues
it's like my feet won't accept my shoes
it's like i'm always looking for bad news
i got the not quite over with blues

i saw a man in toledo, you know, he had a buffalo bills shirt on
and a big plastic sign with the buffalo bills buffalo on
i think he'd found his purpose for his life
i don't want to bear a buffalo or a cross in life
