Well I been drinkin' again

And I know it's a sin

But I just can't refuse an old friend

Cause life is gettin' me down

And I been two times around

And there ain't nothing but pain around the bend

I'm not made for the time

I'm born in the wrong century

There's too much craziness here

In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes



Now this old world is a fright

You know my future ain't bright

And I'd just crawl in a hole if I could

Or maybe live out in space

Or some other far away place

And not come back to this earth till it's good

Oh but I'm dreaming again

I know that I'm here till the end

There's too much craziness here

In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes



Well you might think that I'm all wrong

The things I say in this song

I really wish I could see it your way

Cause there's a storm rollin' in

And it just might be the end

So I'm praying we'll all get away

Now my cup is running dry

The weight of the world gets me down

There's too much craziness here

In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes



There's nowhere to turn

So I'll just have to learn not to cry, no more

It's all I can do till we find something new

But I'll get by you know I'll try

In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes
