Drunken Hearted Man

    Drunken Hearted Man (take 1)

    I'm a drunken hearted man

      my life seem so misery
    I'm the drunken hearted man
      my life seem so misery
    And if I could change my way of livin'
      it t'would mean so much to me

    I been dogged and I been driven

      eve' since I left my mother's home
    I been dogged and I been driven
      eve' since I left my mother's home
    And I can't see no reason why
      that I can't leave these no-goods womens alone

    My father died and left me

      my poor mother done the best that she could
    My father died and left me
      my poor mother done the best she could
    Every man likes that game you call love
      but it don't mean no man no good
    Now, I'm the drunken hearted man
      and sin was the cause of it all
      spoken: Oh, play 'em now
    I'm a drunken hearted man
      and sin was the cause of it all
    And the day that you get weak for no-good women
      that's the day that you bound to fall
