[Verse 1]



You can have my life, I'm sad



You can have the beat in my heart



You can be my light, pizzazz



You can be my spark in the dark



But if I'm out there actin' the bum I'll become one



So no more frigid nights in the cold



I would fall asleep in the lawn 'til the sun rose



14 karat gold, gold



You can have my life, I'm sad



[Chorus]



Broken downtown down on Wedgewood & 8th



And I'm bleedin' like a heartache



Get ready to break



And then on down the road



Comes another mistake



Try hard as I might



I can't quite get it right



I'm bummin'



I'm bummin'



[Verse 2]



We can ride the bus all around



In this town, I'm on it



We can fall asleep on the ground



By the sound, I want it



Picture perfect, matted and framed



With my name right on it



14 karat gold, gold



You can have my life, I'm sad



[Chorus]



Broken downtown down on Wedgewood & 8th



And I'm bleedin' like a heartache



Get ready to break



And then on down the road



Comes another mistake



Try hard as I might



I can't quite get it right



I'm bummin'



Broken downtown down on Wedgewood & 8th



Yeah, I'm bleedin' like a heartache



Get ready to break



I've been burnin' in the sun



And I'm barely awake



Try hard as I might



I can't quite get it right



I'm bummin'



I'm bummin'



[Bridge]



I can't afford this bummin', no [x4]



So take this life You gave me



Save me from my vices, oh



I can't afford this bummin', no



I'm in a crisis, oh



So take this life You gave me



Save me from my vices



I'm bummin'



I'm bummin'



[Chorus]



Broken downtown down on Wedgewood & 8th



Yeah, I'm bleedin' like a heartache



Get ready to break



And then on down the road



Comes another mistake



Try hard as I might



I can't quite get it right



I'm bummin'



(I can't afford this bummin', no



I'm in a crisis, oh)



I'm bummin'



(So take this life you gave me



Save me from my vices)
