The Jig Is Up (Live at Cornerstone 2001) The 77s

[Spoken Intro]
This is a sweet song--written by our bass player, Mr. Mark Harmon, let's hear it for Mark!

[Verse 1]
I am a troubled man
Trouble is what I am
I am a troubled man
And I'll take all you can give me

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I walk alone
Hand in hand with my trouble
But still nobody's home

[Chorus 1]
I'm in the poorhouse forever
I'm in the doghouse forever
And ever with you

[Verse 2]
A simple man
Simple is what I am
I am quite simply mad
And not particularly glad to be
You were a simple friend
I complicated you, then
I lost that simple friend
All complications unending
