Another night here all alone
And all my friends are at the Rolling Stones
I could leave right now and go
And probably catch most of the show
It feels like I'm better left to dwell
Inside a coffin or a cell
I got the time to see it through
But I just wish I wanted to

I left my suitcase by the door
And I made myself a drink or four
I can't find nothing on the tube
I guess I just ain't in the mood
I've been growing restless in my mind
As I sit and waste away my time
I could cruise on down to Kalamazoo
Lord, I just wish I wanted to

Well, I wish I wanted to, oh, yes, it's true
But it's hard to give a damn when you ain't got a damn to lose
I could get up off my ass in a jumping-jack flash
If I could put this guitar down long enough to move
I only wish I wanted to

It ain't no secret I like my space
I don't need to see you face-to-face
And all night, I'm pacing on the floor
Can't bring myself to hit the door
Well, they ain't made a Friday night
That can take me on when I'm feeling right
But I could make me a late debut
I just wish I wanted to

Well, I wish I wanted to, oh, yes, it's true
But it's hard to give a damn when you ain't got a damn to lose
I could get up off my ass in a jumping-jack flash
If I could put this guitar down long enough to move
I only wish I wanted to

Well, I wish I wanted to, oh, yes, it's true
Oh, but it's hard to give a damn when you ain't got a damn to lose
I could get up off my ass in a jumping-jack flash
If I could put this guitar down long enough to move
I only wish I wanted to

Yeah
Put my shit on do not disturb
All my motivation is sitting on the curb
This couch feels pretty good, man
Thank you, guitar
