I'm a lover I'm a sinner I'm a loser I'm a winner
I am everything that i'm not and so much more
now do you hear me baby knockin' on your back door
I said hey pretty lady your the only one who makes me feel the way i do
thats why it breaks my heart when we're apart i'm always coming on home to you
and when you leave me all alone you leave me livin with the motel blues
I had to work for the love that i gave to you lord knows i paid my dues
I went up and down your road in my worn out shoes i'm always lookin for my love thats true
and until that day i'll be livin with the motel blues
you hear me baby?

It's been a month since ive been on my own
now this loneliness wnt leave me alon
i stay up all night and write about you
pick up my guitar and sing the blues

Drink my whiskey down and start to think about
how it feels to be alone
and i wonder am i ever going under
is this bottle gonna make me drown
Thwey say time can heel my pain
make me feel peace again
no one told me life would be this hard
i carry on with a broken heart
now i got nothing left to lose
thats why i'm gonna drink this bottle for you
i drink my whiskey down
and start to think about
how it feel to be alone
and i wonder am i ever going under
is this bottle gonna make me drown

you went through your crossroads and followed the devil all the way home
you just needed to borrow some love from a man that you thought was your friend
with the best of intentions your taking his medicine livin this life again never again
you said again never again you said it again and again and again
you make the same mistakes over and over again
pick up the pieces and start over broken hearted girl make your amends never again
you make the same mistakes over and over again
pick up the pieces and start over broken hearted girl make your amends singing never again
you wake up every morning with a story of a night that was full of regret
you don't wanna remember all of the good times you thought you had
when you were living it up but its never enough now you gotta give up this addiction never again
you said it again never again
you said it again and again and again
you make the same mistakes over and over over again
pick up the pieces and start over broken hearted girl make your amends singing never again
you make the same mistakes over and over again
pick up the pieces and start over broken hearted girl make your amends singing never again

you give it away early in the morning til late in the evening you give it away all of your time man you have been grinding you give it away watchin the time fly by your watchin it slip away you give it watchin the time fly by your watchin it slip away
everyday its a struggle when your hustlin' to make a living never gonna give in to this system thats a prison for your mind open up your eyes and see its the blind leading the blind steady feeding this machine but if you believe in yourself you could be whatever you want be a doctor a lawyer or own a restaurant but whatever you do don't just do what they say you gotta listen to that feeling in your heart and then give it away
early in the morning late in the evening you give it away all of your time man you have been grinding you give it away whatchin the time fly by your whatchin it slip away ya you give it away whatchin the time fly by your whatchin it slip away
wake up every mornin' if you live that normal life then you drive your car to work where you give away your time but when you realize your times more valuable than that money that you make cuz its just another tool that keeps you in debt and comin' back for more ya your workin for the man your not yourself no more and it keeps adding up each and every day you gotta listen to that feeling in your heart and then give it away
early in the morning till late in the evening ya you give it away all of your time man you have been grinding ya you give it away whatchin the time fly by your whatchin it slip away ya you give it away whatchin the time fly by your whatchin it slip[ away

Skip town hop a train bound for philly
went to the bank and took out all my money
now i'm rollin the dice i put it all on black
look at that i hit the jackpot and doubled my stack

and she took all money when i was asleep
she set fire to my room and she left with my keys
she didn't care if i lived or died she's gonna take my money and she will ride on
down to mexico where the grass is greener and the palm trees grow
shes always wanted to go take some money on a trip down to the south now its easy come easy go
easy come easy go that girls karma is gonna come
easy come easy go that girls karma is gonna come
