|
Lost my house, lost my love |
|
Swept away in a raging flood |
|
I... I'm still alive |
|
I believe God is testing me, |
|
But I can't take what the Lord decrees |
|
I... I'm still alive |
|
On a Monday life was swell, |
|
By Wednesday I'm in Hell |
|
But I'm still alive |
|
Bankers came to move me on |
|
So strapped for cash, I had to sell this song |
|
I... I'm still alive |
|
Doctor told me I've a terrible disease |
|
The dog's run off and the cat's got fleas |
|
I... I'm still alive |
|
On a Monday life was swell |
|
By Wednesday I'm in Hell |
|
But I'm still alive |
|
By the Thursday life was sad |
|
By Good Friday life's too bad |
|
But I'm still alive |
|
Out the window, four vultures on a tree |
|
Licking their beaks and they're talking about me |
|
I... I'm still alive |
