I've been down on my luck
Got a lecture from the boss
He said things aren’t working out
Today you'll be cut
You can finish off the day
But then be on your way
Maybe next time
You’ll learn to play my game
I was shit out of luck
When the neighbors called the cops
Cause I was half cut
And I was smoking pot
The noise was enough
To piss my neighbor off
And when I punched him out
That put the dressing on top
CHORUS
_____________________________________________________________
Some like to see me when I'm down
Some would like to kick me on the ground
Very few would help me try to get up
Most like to see me have bad luck
-------------------------------------
I found a crappy job
Where the pay just sucked
But in my situation
Can’t ask for much
I was just happy to be
Working finally
I'll start from the bottom
If that's the way it’s got to be
It won't be long
Till I write a few songs
And once they're done
From this place I'm gone
_____________
CHORUS
-------
I'll be SOL
If my songs don't sell
I'll be living here
In this dirty motel
It's not going to happen
Got to get out of here
I've hit rock bottom
There’s nothing I fear
I've had bad luck
But that's going to change
Just need some time
To do things my way
_____________
CHORUS
-------
Down on my luck
