I'm a drunken hearted man my life seems so misery

I'm a poor drunken hearted man my life seems so misery

And if I could only change my way of livin'

It would mean so much to me

I been dogged and I been driven ever since I left my mother's home

I been dogged and I been driven ever since I left my mother's home

And I can't see the reason why

That I can't leave these no-good women's alone

My poor father died and left me

And my mother done the best that she could

My poor father died and left me

And my mother done the best that she could

Every man love that game you call love

But it don't mean no man no good

I'm the poor drunken hearted man

And sin was the cause of it all

I'm a poor drunken hearted man

And sin was the cause of it all

But the day you get weak for no-good women

That's the day that you surely fall
