Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'
And I've done a lot of hard, hard livin'
Livin' on the road
And seein' how it goes
I grew up fast and it shows
Cause livin' the nightlife
Is where I belong
And drinkin' with the drunks
Who don't want to go home
And it's hard, it's rough
But I can't quite get enough
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can
Well I'm broke, lovesick, and driftin'
And I've had my share of good women
I once had a good home,
A wife to call my own,
But now I'm here drunk and alone
Cause livin' the nightlife
Is where I belong
And drinkin' with the drunks
Who don't want to go home
And it's hard, it's rough
But I can't quite get enough
Oh I'm doin' the best that I can
