Lyrics

Well I know you hate my drinkin' And the way I talk sometimes But you hate it most when I don't call at night And it's just because you love me And you worry 'bout your man You do the best you can with who I am Burnin' both ends of a candle Can leave one in the dark And I know what I put you through Is hard upon your heart And it's just that you're concerned for me Sweetheart, I understand You do the best you can with who I am You go to church on Sunday While I'm still home in bed Sleepin' off the night I had before And sometimes you say I'm perfect And sometimes not worth a damn You do the best you can with who I am Burnin' both ends of a candle Can leave one in the dark And I know what I put you through Is hard upon your heart And it's just that you're concerned for me Sweetheart, I understand You do the best you can with who I am You do the best you can with who I am.
