Lost and Alone
[Verse 1] Lost my job down at the factory, Bossman said, "Boy, you just ain't what we need." Now I'm punchin' holes in a whiskey glass, Tryin' to drown out the pain of my past. [Chorus] Lost my job, lost my home, Lost my girl, now I'm all alone. Just a drifter on these city streets, Drownin' my sorrows in cheap whiskey neat. [Verse 2] Landlord came knockin' at my door, Said, "Son, you can't stay here anymore." Packed up my troubles in a worn-out sack, Hit the road with no lookin' back. [Bridge] I light up a joint to ease my mind, But it only brings back memories unkind. Every puff just makes me feel more lost, In this world where I'm payin' the cost. [Verse 3] She said she'd stand by me through thick and thin, But when times got tough, she packed it in. Now I'm just a man with a broken heart, Livin' on the streets, tryin' to make a fresh start. [Chorus] Lost my job, lost my home, Lost my girl, now I'm all alone. Just a drifter on these city streets, Drownin' my sorrows in cheap whiskey neat. [Outro] So I'll keep on walkin' with nowhere to go, Just a tumbleweed in this wind that blows. Lost it all, ain't got nothin' left to lose. [Verse] Lost my job down at the factory Bossman said Boy You just ain't what we need Now I'm punchin' holes in a whiskey glass Tryin' to drown out the pain of my past [Verse 2] Landlord came knockin' at my door Said Son You can't stay here anymore Packed up my troubles in a worn-out sack Hit the road with no lookin' back [Chorus] Lost my job Lost my home Lost my girl Now I'm all alone Just a drifter on these city streets Drownin' my sorrows in cheap whiskey neat
