Bernie Leadon - Backup Plan Lyrics

Backup Plan
written: B. Leadon

I don't have a backup plan
Both feet in and take a stand
I play ina gypsy band
And I don't have a backup plan

One foot in and one foot out
Used to be what I'm about
Now standing on these shifting sands
I don't have a backup plan

I knew a man in my hometown
Three times took the marriage vows
Three times wed and three times split
Said "At least I'm willing to commit"

I been afraid to really live
Really take and really give
I want to be a full-grown man
And I don't have a backup plan

More than nine score years ago
My forebears left their emerald home
Hope sailed west in the setting sun
'Til they new their new world had begun

I don't have a backup plan
Both feet in and take a stand
I put on a wedding band
And I don't have a backup plan

I gave you a wedding band
And I don't have a backup plan
