lyrics

Well I don't want your pity
and I don't want your rain
drops upon my window pane
If you'd ask for a nickle babe
I would give you a dime
but I've spent my last dollar
I've been drinking wine
That's why my head is spinning lord
and I am on the ground
just wishing you would strike me down

Cause I don't belong
in this world I'm so far gone
I have sinned since the day
I was brought into this world

I've never known reason
I am no man of god
and I've never met mercy
I'm no friends with the law
If you have some cocaine friend
I'll sing you a song
about the good old days
and the women I have lost
as I sit on my door step
with my eyes to the sky
just wishing I had the courage to fly

And it's time for me to leave
got no cards left up my sleeve
Lay my body under the leaves
for the earth to reclaim
