My Mama told me, your life is such a wreck
|
Your dumber than dogshit is what my Daddy said
|
I was just thirteen when they showed me the door
|
I keep their picture but don't look at it no more
|
|
My first wife told me, you need to get a life
|
My third wife told me to get another wife
|
I brought a bottle and the van's parked by that tree
|
So come on out with me, if you want to be number four
|
|
Sometimes I feel like shit
|
Sometimes that ain't half of it
|
Sometimes I'm so high I'm scared to go to sleep
|
Sometimes I'm lower than the company I keep
|
|
Ain't held down a job since 1984
|
I get by holding up convenience stores
|
I get by on liquor, guns and luck
|
But I'm scared to death which one might run out first
|
|
Sometimes I feel like shit
|
Sometimes that ain't half of it
|
Sometimes I'm so high I'm scared to go to sleep
|
Sometimes I'm lower than the company I keep
|
|
I seen my past in everything that I despise
|
I've seen my future and I'm scared to close my eyes
|
Is that my ghost that I see in my fears
|
Or just my reflection in my Mama's tears
|
|
Sometimes I feel like shit
|
Sometimes that ain't half of it
|
Sometimes I'm so high I'm scared to go to sleep
|
Sometimes I'm lower than the company I keep
|
Sometimes I'm lower than the company I keep
|
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
|
