Ain't Life Sweet

(album: High Stakes & Dangerous Men - 1992)

Kick out the cat
Turn back the clock
Ain't life sweet baby look what I got
They took the TV honey
Oh babe now they took the car
I skipped the bills yeah
And I've been drinking at the bar

Ain't life a treat
It ain't so sweet
When you're down on down
Down on down

The bank's foreclosing
And there's a foot inside my door
The telephone's not ringing
And I can't take it anymore

I'm off the track
My last six pack
And I'm down on down
Going down
Ain't life a treat
It ain't so sweet
When you're going down
Down on down

Hit me, shorty

My God the kids are screaming
And the help she ain't been paid
My baby upped and left me
Well I hope she's getting laid

Ain't life a treat
It ain't so sweet
When you're down on down
Going down
I'm just bad luck
Looks like I got stuck
Down on down
Down on down

I took it to the limit
Now I'm really in it
Going down
Right on down
Just like the I.R.S.
Oh, more is less
Going down
Down on down
