lyrics

Ya got both your shotgun barrels / Pressed against my chest

Wave your feather finger but be careful don’t make a mess of my heart

Ya made a mess of my heart

Ya know a bitter man gets lonely / like a foolish fool will do

I’ll chase that lonely rainbow, at the end hopin’ I find you all dressed in gold

You’ll be my lucky pot of gold

Well I asked around to try to find just what this love’s about

They all say it’s just a wicked way to turn a man…..inside out

I got six days to break my back / I got one to rest my bones

Have my fun when the work is done but I’m tired and I wanna go home, it just ain’t fair

But I’m the only one who cares

I got 35 years of workin’ / I got 35 more to go

35 grand for a funeral plan, I better stick around 35 more, it just ain’t right

I can’t even afford to die

Well I asked around to try to find out just what this world’s about

They all say it’s just a wicked way to turn a man….inside out

Ya know a bitter man gets lonely / like a foolish fool will do

I sit around tryin’ to think about what could’ve been me and you, but that’s all gone

A little trouble movin’ on

Well I asked around to try to find out just what this life’s about

They all say it’s just a wicked way to turn a man….inside out
