What AM I Living For

|
What I say to my best friend
|
Can't you see for a mess I made
|
Daddy,you talked me to drink whisky
|
But my mama,she died from a drinking gin
|
My brother,he works any coal mine
|
Works so hard,get his pain
|
My sister,she believes in sweet Lord Jesus
|
And she's waiting for redemption day
|
What am I living for?
|
Why am I living,
|
Why am I living all my life to bring up
|
The family children and wife
|
Tell me my friend hasn't that been done before
|
|
I remember my first job
|
I was singing where the band
|
Every payday came around
|
I take my money from the man
|
He said "now,spend it wisely,boy
|
Or save it while you have the time"
|
But I could drunk on stand
|
And I booed the fag
|
Now I'm standing in the unemployment line
|
|
What am I living for?
|
Why am I living,
|
Why am I living all my life to bring up
|
The family children and wife
|
Tell me my friend hasn't that been done before
|
|
I need a sweet woman
|
Mine
|
Until the sun don't shine
|
I came home one morning early
|
I found her with a friend of mine
|
It's not so much I needed her
|
But,oh,god
|
How to stay away
|
Packing my bag and I hit the road
|
And I've never seen her to these days
|
|
What am I living for?
|
Why am I living,
|
Why am I livng all my life to bring up
|
The family children and wife
|
Listen my friend that's all been done before
|
