I've had choices
Since the day
I was born
There were voices
That told me
Right from wrong
If I only listened
No
I wouldn't
Be here today
Living and dying
With the choices
I've made

I was tempted
By an early age
I found

Now you say you're lonely
You cry
The whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For bein' so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Maybe we ought
To think this through
Maybe we ought

I'm scattered everywhere
Help me
Put myself back together

Why hello
Say can I buy you
Another glass of beer?
Well
Thanks a lot
That's kind of you
It's nice

No one seems
To want to know
I may be just
An old soldier

This morning
With an attitude

At the headlines
Put me
In a real bad mood

Sitting here in limbo
Trying to stay sane
Between the end
Of the summer
And the coming
Of the blessed rains

And I feel dirty
All the way down
