Dr. John - Right Place, Wrong Time lyrics

[Dr. John - Right Place, Wrong Time lyrics]

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I been in the right trip
But I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a bad place and
I'm wondering what it's good for
I been the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
My head was in a bad place
But I'm having such a good time

I been running trying to get
Hung up in my mind (oooh)
Got to give myself a
Good talking-to this time
Just need a little brain salad surgery (oooh)
Got to cure this insecurity

I been in the wrong place
But it must have been the right time
I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong song
I been in the right vein
But it seems like the wrong arm
I been in the right world
But it seems wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong

Slipping, dodging, sneaking, creeping
Hiding out down the street (oooh)
See me life shaking with every ho' I meet
Refried confusion is making it'self clear
(oooh) wonder which way do I go to
Get on out of here

I been in the right place
But it must have been the wrong time
I'd have said the right thing
But I must have used the wrong line
I'd have took the right road
But I must have took a wrong turn
Would've made the right move
But I made it at the wrong time
I been on the right road but
I must have used the wrong car
My head was in a good place and
I wonder what it's bad for
