Lyrics

Ain't no good life Not the one that I lead 'Cause the more I fight the sadness yeah It only seems the more that I grieve Well I always look back on the good times As some lost part of me I wanna know Tell me why is it so Well just because I don't pray Lord that don't mean I ain't forgiven Just 'cause I'm alive That don't mean I'm makin' a livin' I'm gonna get myself together I'm gonna try a dyin' attempt Talkin' about the good times slippin' by Yeah I'll tell ya now I don't even know where last month went Well I can't make no money baby Well 'cause my money's already spent And I know where it went I said it went on that damn rent Well I, I don't mean change Baby I need folding money When I want a lover said I don't need a buddy Well I don't need nobody now (Woo) Ain't exactly my idea It's sort of old borrowed and blue I'm just tryin' to say don't try that straight life buddy Well you'll find it kind of hard on you Women don't try to cook nothin' up (Ooh) Brother you know you'll only wind up in your own stew Just don't let nobody tell you Oh what you oughta do
