Well here comes the story baby that I want you all to know,
|
'Bought what brought me down, what got me feeling low,
|
Started off one day and took off down the road.
|
Seeking' my fame and fortune, and trying to tote the load.
|
|
Chorus:
|
One man's loss is another man's gain.
|
One man's pleasure is another man's pain.
|
I left my woman in Jacksonville and took off down the line.
|
She had her way of thinking and Lord knows I had mine.
|
She could not take the pain of me not being home.
|
Couldn't take the pain, baby, of staying all alone.
|
|
Chorus:
|
One man's loss is another man's gain.
|
One man's pleasure is another man's pain.
|
Now when I left this town it was for her and for me.
|
Now I'm home all alone, with a paper that says I'm free.
|
I guess I'll hit the road again, and do what I do best.
|
To hell with her, to hell with him, to hell with all the rest.
|
|
Chorus:
|
One man's loss is another man's gain.
|
One man's pleasure is another man's pain.
|
Chorus:
|
One man's loss is another man's gain.
|
One man's pleasure is another man's pain.
|
Now tell me people, who's to blame?
