once upon a time
they called me the bleeder
well swimmin' up this river
with sentimental fever
but this ain't my first ride
it ain't my last try
just got to keep a-movin' on
if they catch me ever
they'll throw me back forever
[chorus:]
i guess i should be ashamed
but i forget to be vain
well i did the best i could i guess
but everything just bleeds
they say you're only sad and lonely
and no one is impressed
i sent it off in a letter
i need somethin' better
than a nail and a hammer
to put me back together
but this ain't my first ride
it ain't my last try
just got to keep a-movin on
got to keep this together
maybe next time is never
[chorus]
sometimes i must confess
i do feel a little over dressed
sometimes it's hard to tell the wishing from the well
where you threw the penny and where it fell
i guess i should i should be ashamed
but i forget to be vain
well i did the best i could i guess
but everything just bleeds
i guess i should be ashamed
but i forget to be vain
well i did the best i could i guess
but everything just bleeds
they say you're only sad and lonely
and no one is impressed |
