Going Quietly Mad - Al Kooper

I am sitting here so softly

And I can hear my wristwatch ticking

Wish someone would come and help me

I’m going quietly mad

Tried to read the evening paper

Couldn’t make it past page one

Wish someone would come and save me, baby

From going quietly mad

Got ripped off by the traveling salesman

I lost my job and my wallet too

I sold my heart to the junkman

I guess there’s nothing left to do

Got a letter from my baby

Got a package from my dad

Wish that you were here to save me, baby

I’m going quietly mad

I am sitting here so softly

And I can hear my wristwatch ticking

Wish that you were here to save me, baby

From going quietly mad, I’m going quietly mad

I’m going quietly mad
