I Can't Function

I’m working hard from mornin' ‘til night
My shoulder bendin' to the wheel
I get home, you start to run me down
How do you think it makes me feel?
Your lashin' tongue, it hurts my soul
I start to thinkin' and I lose control
I’m not movin' like I know I should
Or feelin' like I’d like to feel
And I spend my days just foolin' around
I can’t function, honey, when you run me down
Oh darlin', don’t you run me down
I gotta make a little fortune
So I can bring it on home to you
You’re only hurtin' yourself my friend
Treatin' me the way you do
My hands are tied behind my back
I’m drinking dinner from a paper sack
Every day is the fourth of july
And I’m nothin' but an april fool
Well, I spend my days just cruisin' around
I can’t function, honey, when you run me down
Oh darlin', don’t you run me down
I’m half a man with half a heart
I hear you laughin' and I fall apart
I’d like to put it on the table
But I’m lost before I even start
You do me wrong and it’s bringing me down
My idle ways are the talk of the town
You make me feel like a do-nothing clown
I can’t function, honey, when you run me down
Oh darlin', don’t you run me down
Oh darlin', don’t you run me down
(spoken)
Hey, don’t you run me down darlin'
It’s not polite
In public!
In public?
Down there in front of Abraham & Strauss?
I seen it
I was a W, now I’m an L
Somethin' wrong with my…
