[Verse 1]
Come twenty days when you get married
I'll go a-wanderin' away
I don't think I can save face honestly
Enough to make it through the day
She likes to dream that I'm still there
[Verse 2]
But, baby, I am homeless
Damn, I love the moments
That got me right outta town
Living with my family
Damn, I was so happy
Why did I leave that hallowed ground?
[Verse 3]
Go tell the father his daughter's pregnant
Yeah, she's gonna have a baby boy
He'll come out drinking, cussing, and stinking
Yeah, that's our little bundle of joy
[Verse 4]
'Cause Daddy can't forget all his enemies and debts
Yeah, they chase him round and give him sour dreams
Like tied up to a tree, all my family and me
Just keep running round in circles that we've left
[Verse 5]
Don't you run away if your boy, he wants to stay
You know it loves me more than you ever could
Something 'bout your taste is such a sad thing to waste
If I could bottle it, you know I surely would
[Verse 6]
Ain't life sweet?
Ain't life sweet?
[Verse 7]
Please ask the doctor to stop the pain
Yeah, my time in this world has expired
Please ask the doctor to stop the pain
Yeah, my time in this world has expired
My lonely bed is all made up
I'm ready to be cast into the fire
[Verse 8]
So sell my belongings, all my clever drawings
Try to make a dollar from the grave
Give flowers to my friends, I'll be with them to the end
In then my memory will always remain
[Verse 9]
Ooh, ain't life sweet?
Yeah, ooh, ain't life sweet?
