"Guilty" lyrics

"Guilty"
(originally by Randy Newman)

Yes, baby, I been drinkin'
And I shouldn't come by, I know
But I found myself in trouble, darlin'
And I had nowhere else to go

I got some whiskey from the barman
And some cocaine from a friend
And I just had to keep on movin', darlin'
Till I was back in your arms again

Oh, now I'm guilty, yes, I'm guilty
And I'll be guilty all the rest of my life
How come I never do what I'm supposed to do?
How come nothing I try to do ever comes out right?

Well, you know how it is with me, baby
I just can't stand myself
It takes a whole lot of medicine, darlin'
For me to pretend that I'm somebody else
