For The Shape I'm In Lyrics

For The Shape I'm In

By Doc Mason and Sam Gay

Got some advice tellin' me that a man,
Shouldn't burn his candles from both ends.
Thank you very kindly, my newfound friend,
B'lieve I'm in pretty good shape For The Shape I'm In.

This old world goes to shakin', wears my patience thin.
Time to put my foot down, get back on track again.
What matters more that what we are, matters in the end.
B'lieve I'm in pretty good shape For The Shape I'm In.
____Refrain:
I know where you're comin' from, I know you mean well
And I want you to know, I appreciate your help.
I look around at where I am, think back where I been.
B'lieve I'm in pretty good shape For The Shape I'm In..
_____
I might be bound for glory, might be bound for sin.
I might be bound to lose a race, I might be bound to win.
I might be bound to criticize what I don't understand.
Still, I'm in pretty good shape For The Shape I'm In.
____Refrain:
I know where you're comin' from, I know you mean well.
I know that you're only thinkin' 'bout my health.
I look around at where I am, think back where I been.
B'lieve I'm in pretty good shape For The Shape I'm In.
