I must've had a million damn unlucky days
|
But there ain't no cloud that a bottle can't chase away
|
I've done my deal of living, ran from place to place
|
But when the roof comes in I don't wanna take it straight
|
|
They say with faith any soul can make it
|
But hell, why should I wait
|
'Til the clouds go rain on some other sucker's parade
|
|
I've had my share of heartaches, let downs and tricks
|
But the everyday blues is the one thing I can fix
|
I've heard those holy brethren muttering my name
|
But it ain't no sin to drink when you're suffering
|
|
Patience, they say, is a saintly virtue
|
But hell, why should I wait
|
'Til the clouds go rain on some other sucker's parade
|
When every heavy sky just empties on your fate
|
Sometimes keeping dry's something to celebrate
|
|
So if the road of sin is the one I'm taking
|
I ain't gonna stray
|
'Til the clouds go rain on some other sucker's parade
|
