If You See Me Getting Smaller I'm Leaving Songtext
von Jimmy Webb

Willie, you′re my constant companion
You know the night and day
We have spent a million dollars
To find out what we made
We have made the maidens marvel
At the things we do and say
Down, down and out brother
Up, up and away
If you see me gettin' smaller, I′m leavin'
Don't be grievin′
I′ve just got to get away from here
If you see me gettin' smaller, don′t worry
I'm in no hurry
I′ve got a right to disappear
God bless Philadelphia
They were standing in the rain
Out in front of the Main Point
A wet and lonely train
Who knows who they came to see?
A madman full of beer


A four-piece band in a charter bus
My borderline career
If you see me gettin' smaller, I′m leavin'
Don't be grievin′
I′ve just got to get away from here
If you see me gettin' smaller, don′t worry
I'm in no hurry
I′ve got a right to disappear
I've got a right to disappear
I′m free to fade away
I've got a right to disappear
I'm free to fade away
I′ve got a right to disappear
I′m free to fade away
I've got a right to disappear
I′m free to fade away
I've got a right to disappear
I′m free to fade away
I've got a right to disappear
I′m free to fade away
I've got a right to disappear
