I'LL TAKE IT

Description: Guitar
No I may not make the New York Times today
No I may not make the New York Times today
I may just be average me
On an ordinary day
But I'll take it
No I may not sleep in Malibu tonight
Or turn the heads on Fashion Avenue tonight
I may just be average little me
On an ordinary day
But I'll take it
And for my consolation prizes
I get everyday surprises
Like the angle of your smile
And these twenty-four hours with my name right on 'em
No I may not be a movie star tonight
Or have relations in my private car
I may just be average little me
On an unremarkable day
But I'll take it
And for my consolation prizes
I get everyday surprises
Like those riddles in your eyes
And these cowboy boots of imitation leather
No I may not be the President tonight
Thank holy God I'm not the President
I may just be average little me
On an unhistoric day
I'll take it
I'll take it
[March 1995]
