Try to stay alive

Try to stay alive
Do the hand Jive
Skin me daddy
give me 5
Not all money
can keep U 5X5
Try to stay alive.

Breathe deep do
the 1000 yard stare
Eat some chili verde
if you dare
live with folks that give care
Give what you can
all that's here won't last
Try to stay alive

No more jive,Clive
No more chip,dip
No more love that
fits me like a glove
This life of ours won't last
NO SHOVING
Try to stay alive

I don't roll well
with the punches
been far to long
since Tony and I
did some lunches
Joy in the morning
doesn't grow in bunches
Peace in the moment
can shatter the silence
Love is elusive
like quicksilver messages
Try to stay alive

Do the hand jive
Obie's honey from
his sweet hives
Give me five ,Clive
Try to stay alive
