Richard Manuel - Black Prairie

Where is my belt?

I swear I’m gonna get

Myself together

Where is the Band?

I’m gonna set

This hotel on fire

The band is swinging

Swinging, swinging, swinging

Just like me

The band is swinging

Swinging, swinging, swinging

Just like me

Where is my wife?

I swear I still smell her

In the shower

Where is my band?

I’m gonna set

This hotel on fire

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, please

Swing it just like me

My neck is soft

My neck is taut

Against the leather

My body falls

My fingers drop

Down together

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, play the keys

Manuel, please

Swing it just like me
