As I watch the sun Set slowly I hold back a tear And I can't help but wonder Why the Lord had to put me here As I raise hell all night long And I've seen a good man go wrong And I can't help the way that I am Cause the whiskey weed and women have the upper hand Livin' lonely is a life that I been livin' And I got drunk the day my pa went to prison And when my momma died I just didn't care about livin' And I drank myself blind just tryin' to find a good reason Chorus Yea, the whiskey weed and women have the upper hand
