Songtexte: Gordon Lightfoot. Painter Passing Through. My Little Love.

I've got a song that it is my mind
My little love who is never unkind
"I'm a poet and I'm better off dead"
These are the words she said

Down by the breadline, pickin' up dough
Hand me the guitar, there I'll go
I would rather make a living instead
Instead of bein' in the red

My little love from the world outside
Helpin' me keep, turnin' the tide
Come and meet me by the neon light
And I'm hopin' you'll make it alright

I'll do anything you see fit, my little love

My little love movin' in my soul
My little love who will never turn cold
It doesn't matter if I ain't shaved
It doesn't matter if I ain't behaved

My little love you been on my side
Helpin' me keep, turnin' the tide
Havin' a hard time livin' right now
Havin' a fine time showin' you how

My little love from the world out there
Helpin' me keep, a-doin' my share
Come and meet me by the neon light
And I'm hopin' you will make it alright

I'll do anything you see fit, my little love

I've got a song that it is my mind
My little love who is never unkind
"I'm a poet and I'm better off dead"
These are the words she said

Down by the breadline, pickin' up dough
Hand me the guitar, there I'll go
It doesn't matter if I ain't shaved
It don't matter if I ain't behaved

I got a light that is in my soul
I got a love that'll never turn cold
Come and meet me by the neon tonight
And I'm hopin' you'll make it alright

I'll do anything you see fit, my little love
I'll do anything you see fit, my little love
