when i paint my masterpiece (live at knickerbocker arena, albany, ny, march 1990) - grateful lyrics

Loading...

oh, the streets of rome are filled with rubble,
ancient footprints are everywhere.
you can almost think that you’re seein’ double
on a cold dark night on the spanish stairs.

got to hurry on back to my hotel room,
where i’ve got me a date with botticelli’s niece.
she promised that she’d be right there with me
when i paint my masterpiece.

oh, the hours i’ve spent inside the coliseum,
dodging lions and wastin’ time.
oh, those mighty kings of the jungle,
i could hardly stand to see ’em,
yes, it sure has been a long hard climb.

train wheels runnin’ thru the back of my memory,
when i ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese.
someday, everything is gonna be smooth like a rhapsody,
when i paint my masterpiece.

sailin’ ’round the world in a dirty gondola,
oh, to be back in the land of coca-cola!

i left rome and landed in brussels,
on a plane ride so b-mpy that i almost cried.
clergymen in uniform and young girls pullin’ muscles,
everyone was there to greet me when i stepped inside.

newspapermen eating candy
had to be held down by big police.
someday, everything is gonna be diff’rent
when i paint my masterpiece.
