What's Left of Me

For thirty-odd years, I was a newspaperman

I made my living with a pen and a pad

God, I miss the smell of paper and the ink on my hands

Been back from the desert for a year or so

I left more in that sand than you'll ever know

Another war was waiting for me when I got back home

In the name of the flag, some gave their lives

I'm still living, yeah, Semper Fi

Well, that's my story, what else can I say?

Hey, hey

I got a lot to give, say, can you see?

I'm still breathing, and my heart still beats

They took the car, but they left the lease

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Boarded up the house, they left the keys

Foreclosed on my city, rolled up these streets

But I ain't checking out, I still got my dreams

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Hey, hey

Hey, hey

They called us "Dirty Harry," we're a punk rock band

Why they sold old CBGB's I don't understand

All that's left now are the t-shirts, and they come from Japan

I sold my drums to make ends meet

The band broke up, we had to eat

It's the same old shit, it just happens more these days

Hey, hey

I got a lot to give say can you see

I'm still breathing, and my heart still beats

They took the car, but they left the lease

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Boarded up the house, they left the keys

Foreclosed on my city, rolled up these streets

But I ain't checking out, I still got my dreams

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Hey, hey

Hey, hey

I'm a teacher, I'm a farmer, I'm a union man

It's getting hard to make a living in this hard land

We ain't working in our factories, all those jobs went overseas

Hey, hey

Does anybody want, does anybody want

Does anybody want what's left of me?

I got a lot to give, say, can you see

I'm still breathing, and my heart still beats

They took the car, but they left the lease

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Does anybody want to buy or rent?

Take the chance or place a bet?

I ain't checking out I still got my dreams

Does anybody want what's left of me

Hey, hey

Hey, hey

Does anybody want, does anybody want

Does anybody want what's left of me?

Hey, hey

Hey, hey

Aw, does anybody want, does anybody want

Does anybody want what's left of me?
