Saw a poor man picking up some cans
Sometimes I sleep with all the lights on
Then I watched a stranger give that man a dollar
And if I am truly crazy
And all they remember are times so sad
And if I'm really going on out of my mind
Don't you think that life would be awfully boring
Won't you hop on board and make your getaway
Turn 'em out at night so that we can hide
Don't you know I like my life that way?
Don't you know I like my life that way, that way? No, no, no, no
You said that I must be crazy, I said, "Crazy about you"
If I'm really going on out of my mind
I'm glad that I'm alive, so glad that I'm alive"
Won't you hop on board, make your getaway
I hear people talk about life all the time
Don't you know I like my life that way, that way? No, no
And I kissed you on the mouth
It helps me to appreciate the night
Come to take me home alive
Don't you know I like my life that way?
If I am truly crazy
For a moment I thought you were an angel
You woke up and you caught me staring
Saw a little boy, who had some salt water in his eyes
If I am truly crazy
If I am truly crazy
Then I stared up into the heavens, said, "Oh my God
And if I'm really going on out of my mind
If the good times were all that we had
And if I'm really going on out of my mind
Smiled and said, "Fool cut it out"
Took a walk down by the seashore
Won't you hop on board, make your getaway
Watched a mama wipin' tears from her little boy's eyes
Won't you hop on board, make your getaway
Reaching out for his mama's hands
Wake up in the morning we turn all the lights on
