"Better Man Than Me" lyrics

"Better Man Than Me"

Give me another cigarette
I'm going to smoke myself to death
Sitting out on the back step
Staring at the night

Give me another shot would you please
I'm going to drink myself to sleep
Don't think no one will be missing me
When I turn off that light

A better man than me would've never walked away
A better man than me would've found a way to stay
Patch it up for another month
Just like your daddy's old Ford truck
Yeah, better man than me wouldn't have given up

I've been walking down a dark road
Ain't got nothing but the stars above
It's been three hours since the sun ran off
Left me alone with the night

And I've been calling for my baby
She ain't got nothing left to say to me
I guess she's better off flying free
And I'm better off out of sight

A better man than me would've never walked away
A better man than me would've found a way to stay
Patch it up for another month
Just like your daddy's old Ford truck
Yeah, better man than me wouldn't have given up
