I work all day, like a dog

just to make a dime

What Uncle Sam doesn't take

he sends to my two e wives

All that I need

is a small bag of weed

and a friend

A place we can go,

where the beer is ice cold

and the women dont care where youve been

Cause I've been through hell,

I've been locked up in jail

Left out in the cold,

I've been drunk, I've been stoned

Going out of my mind,

one night stand at a time

I need a lady to hold me,

as long as she leaves in the morning

'Cause I won't be changing her name

or the way that I am

This whiskey bottle in my hand

is going dry

There ain't enough whiskey

in this bottle to get her off my mind

I know I'm to blame

for living on some old bar stool

Ain't a good girl in this world's

gonna put up with the crazy things I do

Cause I've been through hell,

I've been locked up in jail

Left out in the cold,

I've been drunk, I've been stoned

Going out of my mind,

one night stand at a time

I need a lady to hold me,

as long as she leaves in the morning

'Cause I won't be changing her name

or the way that I am

There ain't no use in pretending

there'll be some happy ending

'Cause I won't be changing her name

or the way that I am.
