You Don't Want What I Have

歌詞

Well hello, friend, I almost didn't know you Since last we met we've drifted different ways Well I heard you settled down With your wife up north of town I'm single again and living right here these days You're pointing at my and now you're calling Two more of the same and start the tab Well sure that might sound good But I don't think you should You don't want what I have Well I'd ask you what's brought you to this bar room But the desperate look you're wearing says it all Small words became a fight And she pushed you hard tonight And now you're on the edge about to fall The women here they come on so easy That young thing sure acts like she needs me bad But don't look on her lies With envy in your eyes You don't want what I have All I have's a helpless feeling Of a man slowly sinking down And these few fellow drunkards for a family Wish I had back my real one right now I know the grass is always greener But from where I sit you can't have it bad So do yourself a favor Pack it up and go home You don't want what I have Five years gone by but how clear I remember The last time that I faced my only son I told him that his love won't change I thought time would ease the pain But I can't escape the evil I have done Well it's last call and they'll soon be locked and shuttered But right there on the corner stands a cab So get up like a man Go back while you still can Cause you don't want what I have All I have's a helpless feeling Of a man slowly sinking down And these few fellow drunkards for a family Wish I had back my real one right now And I know the grass is always greener But from where I sit you can't have it bad So do yourself a favor Pack it up and go home You don't want what I have You don't want what I have
