It ain't easy, livin' like a gypsy

Tell ya, honey, how I feel

I've been dreaming

Floatin' downstream and

Losin' touch with all that's real

Whole earth lover, keepin' undercover

Never knowin' where ya been

You been fadin', always out paradin'

Keep in touch with Mama Kin



Well, you've always got your tail on the wag

Shootin' fire from your mouth just like a dragon

You act like a perpetual drag

You better check it out

'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon



It ain't easy, livin' like you wanna

And it's so hard to find piece of mind, yes it is

The way I see it, you've got to say shit

But don't forget to drop me a line



Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen

And workin' for you dad is just a drag, man

He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams

You better check it out

'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon



Keep in touch with Mama Kin

Tell her where you've gone and been

Livin' out your fantasy

Sleepin' late and smokin' tea



Keep in touch with Mama Kin

Tell her where you've gone and been

Livin' out your fantasy

Sleepin' late and smokin' tea



It ain't easy, livin' like ya wanna

And it's so hard to find piece of mind, yes it is

The way I see it, you've got to say shit

But don't forget to drop me a line



Said you're as bald as an egg at eighteen

And workin' for your dad is just a drag, man

He still stuffs your mouth with your dreams

You better check it out

'Cause someday soon you'll have to climb back on the wagon



Keep in touch with Mama Kin

Tell her where you've gone and been

Livin' out your fantasy

Sleepin' late and smokin' tea



Keep in touch with Mama Kin

I said I tell her where you've gone and been

Livin' out your fantasy

Sleepin' late and smokin' tea
