She couldn't stand me anymore |
|
So she just took the kids and went |
|
You see, I've got a drinkin' problem |
|
All the money that we had |
|
I spentNow |
|
I must die by my own hand' |
|
Cause I'm not man enough to live alone |
|
She's better off without me |
|
And I'm better off dead now that she's gone |
|
She gave the most, took the least |
|
And she even had the priest come to our home |
|
And I cried and prayed and promised |
|
GodThat I'd leave the stuff alone |
|
Now I must die by my own hand' |
|
Cause I'm not man enough to live alone |
|
She's better off without me |
|
And I'm better off dead now that she's gone |
|
She used to call her friend and cry |
|
Then the man cut off the telephone |
|
She'd sit and cry while |
|
I went out |
|
And pawned the things we owned |
|
Now I must die by my own hand' |
|
Cause I'm not man enough to live alone |
|
She's better off without me |
|
And I'm better off dead |
