| This tune was written after a visit from a friend. His wife is disabled, he's short of money, and while he's had a number of breaks in his life, nothing really panned out the way everyone thought it would. Every day is a struggle to keep it together for his family. Who would have thought it would turn out this way? Well, one thing's for damn sure: he's not alone in wondering who's life he ended up living... |

Somebody help me, I'm about to cross that line Somebody help me, I'm about to cross that line I don't who's life I'm living, but I know that it can't be mine Morning troubles And the night time too Look in the mirror, wonder What I'm going to do I've been down, kicked 'till I'm half blind I don't know who's life I'm living But I know that it can't be mine Money gone Can't pay my rent Before I make it All the money's spent I've been down, kicked 'till I'm half blind I don't know who's life I'm living But I know that it can't be mine Once upon a time Had a great big car Lots of friends I was gonna be a star I've been down, kicked 'till I'm half blind I don't know who's life I'm living But I know that it can't be mine Old lady's sick And the kids need shoes Can't even ride With these walkin' blues I've been down, kicked 'till I'm half blind I don't know who's life I'm living But I know that it can't be mine Somebody help me, I'm about to cross that line Somebody help me, I'm about to cross that line I don't who's life I'm living, but I know that it can't be mine |
