Me and My Arrow
by Harry Nilsson
Me and my arrow
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my arrow
Me and my arrow
Taking the high road
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my arrow
And in the morning when I wake up
She may be gone, I don't know
And we make up just to break up
I'll carry on, oh yes I will
{refrain}
Me and my arrow
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Straighter than narrow
Wherever we go, everyone knows
It's me and my arrow
Me and my arrow (5X)
{Refrain}
Arrow 93
Harry recorded a special version of 'Me And My Arrow for Arrow 93FM in Los
Angeles. 'Early on after the launch of Arrow 93FM (Sept 10,
1993), I received a telephone call from a gentleman who said he represented
Harry and he wanted us to know that Harry was really
enjoying the radio station. He said Harry drives around all the time listening
to the station. I knew that Harry lived in Agoura Hills.
Anyway, a couple of days later this same representative called and said that
Harry wanted to give us a gift. He arranged for me to pick
up a tape that was left in the lobby and we were to understand that it was a no
strings attached gift from Harry to Arrow. It was a DAT
Tape and when my tech staff played it for me, I heard a mix-out of 'Me And My
Arrow' sung: 'Me and my arrow .... Ninety-three and me.'
We use it to this day (only rarely); however, after Harry's death, it became
much more meaningful to everyone here. We feel very
privileged.' -- Tommy Edwards, Program Director of Arrow 93.
