I've never seen the inside of a barroom. Or listen to a jukebox all night long. But I see these are the things that bring you pleasure. So I'm gonna make some changes in our home.
Living below in this old sinful world hardly a comfort can afford. Striving alone to face temptations far where could I go but to the Lord. Where could I go oh where could I go seeking a refuge for my soul.
Well, God got things back together. And the world started growing again. Noah's sons had sons. And a descendant of Shem's. Was a man called 'Abram'. .
Last night, all alone in a barroom. Met a girl with a drink in her hand. She had ruby red lips, coal black hair. And eyes that would tempt any man. . Then she came and sat down at my table.
How many roads must a man walk down. Before you call him a man?. How many seas must a white dove sail. Before she sleeps in the sand?. . And how many times must the cannon balls fly.
I'll need time, to get you off my mind.. And i may sometimes bother you, try to be in touch with you, even ask to much of you from time to time.. Now and then, lord you know i'll need a friend, till i get use to losing you, let me keep on using you. til i can make it on my own..

I've told you almost every bedtime story. And you've heard almost every nursery rhyme. So tonight before you'll go to sleep. And pray the Lord your soul to keep.
How many roads must a man walk down. Before you call him a man?. Yes, an' how many seas must a white dove sail. Before she sleeps in the sand?. . Yes, an' how many times must the cannon balls fly.
Sometimes when he comes home I'm cookin' breakfast. I haven't slept a wink all night long. I've been layin' in bed thinkin' like a woman. Wonderin' if my man's been doin' me wrong.
Somewhere, a party's goin' on. Someone's there that should go home. But he's the life of the party. So his friends won't let him go, oh no. . He's havin' a real good time.

Tonight I told all my friends goodbye. And then I walked away so they wouldn't see me cry. And headed for swinging doors as fast as I can. For what love has done to me shouldn't happen to a man.
I sit here with your dreams. They are screaming with. A perpetuate and constant flowing. Rhyming and flowing. . And you mean the world to me. Are we okay? Maybe we can talk about it.
Why are there tears in my eyes all the time. I can't help it and I'm blue mem'ries won't pull me through that's why I cry. . The world you're in has taken you from me.
Nobody loves a drink anymore than me. I might buy a round or two or three. And I've been known to stumble and hit the floor. Oh but, I'm never too drunk to make it to the door.
Your best friend, your best girl just made a big messy world. 'Cause arm in arm they left you feelin' blue. She set a trap, you got caught. You should've took her with a grain of salt.
As sit here in this Loser's Cathedral I hear the sad songs that the jukebox play. Then I dream about Where Love Used To Live dear. And all the things that I let slip away.
