Lyrics

Man You know I don't enjoy things that kings and queens will never have And things kings and queens can never get And they don't even know about And good times, mmmmm I have had my fun If I never get well no more I have had my fun If I never get well no more Oh my health is fading Oh yes I'm going down slow Now lookit here I did not say I was a millionaire But I said I have spent more money than a millionaire 'Cause if I had kept all the money then I already had spent Then I would've been a millionaire a long time ago And women, great googly moogly! Please write my mother Tell her the shape I'm in Please write my mother Tell her the shape I'm in Tell her to pray for her son Forgive me for my sins
