Low down leaving sun I've done

Did everything that needs done

Woe is me why can't I see

I'd best be leaving well enough alone

Them neon light nights

Couldn't stay out of fights

Them keep a-haunting me in memories

There's one in every crowd

For crying out loud

Why was it always turning out to be me

Where does it go the good Lord only knows

It seems like it was just the other day

I was down at Green Gables

Hawking them tables

And generally blowing all my hard earned pay

Piano rolled blues

Danced holes in my boots

There weren't another other way to be

For loveable losers

No account boozers

And honky tonk heroes like me

Piano rolled blues

Danced holes in my boots

There weren't another other way to be

For loveable losers

No account boozers

And honky tonk heroes like me
