The New Basement Tapes Lyrics

The New Basement Tapes - Nothing To It

Well I knew I was young enough
And I knew there was nothing to it
'Cause I'd already seen it done enough
And I knew there was nothing to it
There was no organization I wanted to join
So I stayed by myself and took out a coin
There I sat with my eyes in my hand -
just contemplating killing a man - for
Greed was one thing I just couldn't stand
If I was you, I'd put back what I took
A guilty man's got a guilty look
Heads I will and tails I won't
Long as the call wouldn't be my own
Well you don't have to turn your pockets inside out
But I'm sure you can give me something
Well you don't have to go into your bank account
but I'm sure you can give me something
Well I knew I was young enough
And I knew there was nothing to it
'Cause I'd already seen it done enough
And I knew there was nothing to it
Well I knew I was young enough
And I knew there was nothing to it
'Cause I'd already seen it done enough

And I knew there was nothing to it
And I knew there was nothing to it
And I knew there was nothing to it
And I knew there was nothing to it
And I knew there was nothing to it
