Saving Face |
| Come 20 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 |
| But baby I am homeless |
| Damn I love the moments |
| That got me right out of town |
| Livin' with my family |
| Damn I was so happy |
| Why did I leave that hallowed ground |
| But ain’t life sweet |
| Go tell the father his daughter’s pregnant |
| Yeah she’s gonna have a baby boy |
| Hell come out drinkin', cussin', and stinkin' |
| Yeah that’s our little bundle of joy |
| Cause daddy can’t forget all his enemies and debts |
| Yeah they chase him round and sour dreams |
| Like tied up to a tree my family and me just keep runnin' round |
| In circles that we’ve left |
| Don’t you run away if your body wants to stay |
| You know it loves me more than you ever could |
| Somethin' bout your taste is such a sad thing to waste |
| If I could bottle you know I surely would |
| But ain’t life sweet |
| 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 only bed is all made up I’m ready to be cast into the fire |
| 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 them my memory |
| Will always remain |
| Ooh ain’t life sweet |
| Yeah ooh ain’t life sweet |
