Well I woke up pretty late and she sent me on my way to get a job
I bought myself a paper and I sat down at the bar to get a drink
I had a couple a beers and a shot and I thought I'd get goin'
That's when I saw her walkin' in she had a look on her face man she was smokin'
She was mad, yeah, lord she was mad
Mean, mean, she was mean yeah, oh she yelled at me
Then she gave me all I had and said don't be comin' back
That's when I cried, I cried yeah
I took out my guitar and I sat outside the bar and I played
Everybody passin' by chucked a quarter or a dime in my hat
I bought myself a beer and a pack of cigarettes with my bread
When it all was gone I went and knocked upon her door and I said
This is what I said
Baby I'm tired, drunk, broke without a home I got no one to love
Yeah I'm tired baby, drunk, broke without a home I got no one to love
Gimme one more chance I'm gonna change the evil way that I live
She said it was cool
