Ain't The Man You Need
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Good old farmer john took me on sowing seeds and picking weeds
I had to leave, said, i ain't the man you need
I don't know why i'm the way i am
All i seem to know is that i am
And if you offered me anything my soul desired
I'd choose the road and take the mystery
Mr bunn the baker took me on, said i ought to make some bread
I had to leave, said, i ain't the man you need
Algernon the tailor took me on, said he had a job to suit
I had to leave, said, i ain't the man you need
