Judy Collins – I’m Still Here

Judy Collins – I’m Still Here Lyrics

Artist: Judy Collins
Song: I’m Still Here

Good times and bum times
I’ve seen them all and my dear
I’m still here
Plush velvet sometimes

Sometimes just pretzels and beer
But I’m here
I’ve stuffed the dailies in my shoes
Strummed ukuleles sung the blues

Seen all my dreams disappear
But I’m here
I’ve slept in shanties
Guest of the W.P.A

And I’m here
Danced in my scanties
Three bucks a night was the pay
But I’m herе

I’ve stood in bread lines with thе best
Watched while the headlines did the rest
In a depression, was I depressed?
Nowhere near

I met a big financier and I’m here
I’ve been through Gandhi
Windsor and Wally’s affair
And I’m here

Amos ‘n’ Andy
Mah-jongg and platinum hair
And I’m here
Been through a cottage in Key West

Back in the sixties did I protest?
Loud and clear
I been through Lindsay Lohan
And I’m here

I’ve gone through Herbert
And J. Edgar Hoover
Gee that was fun and a half
When you’ve been through Herbert

And J. Edgar Hoover
Anything else is a laugh
I’ve been through Reno
I’ve been through Beverly Hills

And I’m here
Reefers and vino
Rest cures religion and pills
And I’m here

Been called a ‘Pinko’ commie tool
Got through it stinko by my pool
I should have gone to an acting school
That seems clear

Still someone said “She’s sincere”
And I’m here
Black sable one day
Next day it goes into hock

But I’m here
Top billing Monday
Tuesday you’re touring in stock
But I’m here

First you’re another sloe-eyed vamp
Then someone’s mother
Then you’re camp
Then you career from career to career

I’m almost through my memoirs
And I’m here
I’ve gone through
“Hey lady aren’t you Whoozis?”

Why what a looker you were
Or better yet
“Sorry, I thought you were Whoozis
Whatever happened to her?”

Good times and bum times
I’ve seen them all and my dear
I’m still here
Plush velvet sometimes

Sometimes just pretzels and beer
But I’m here
I’ve run the gamut A to Z
Three cheers and then it’s C’est la vie

I’ve gone through all of last year
And I’m here
Lord knows at least I was there
And I’m here

I’m still here
And I’m here
