"Dirty Life And Times"
(originally by Warren Zevon)

Sometimes I feel like my shadow's casting me
Some days the sun don't shine
Sometimes I wonder what tomorrow's gonna bring
When I think about my dirty life and times

One day I came to a fork in the road
Folks, I just couldn't do what I was told
Now they'll hunt me down and hang me for my crimes
If I tell about my dirty life and times

I used to have someone 'til she went out for a stroll
Should have run after her
It's hard to find a girl with a heart of gold
When you're living in a four-letter world

And if she won't love me then her sister will
She's from say-one-thing-and-mean-another's-ville
And she just can't seem to make up her mind
When she hears about my dirty life and times

Sometimes I feel like my shadow's casting me
Some days the sun don't shine
Sometimes I wonder why I'm still running free
All up and down the line

And it sure gets lonely, folks, you know what I mean
I'm looking for a woman with low self-esteem
To lay me out and ease my worried mind
While I'm winding down my dirty life and times
Who'll lay me out and ease my worried mind
While I'm winding down my dirty life and times
