He was warmin his hands with a hot coffee cup

Pourin in whiskey as I walked up he never blinked an eye

He just asked for a light, I noticed he didn't have soles on his shoes

So I pulled out a twenty said go buy some food

But he just stared at his cup like I wasn't there

The he looked at me said son that's nice

But theres some things money cant buy,

{chorus}

I want my life back, I want that house that I called home,

I want that job I worked for 22 years before I got laid off,

I want what I had when I laid down in the arms of the woman that believed in me

And that man I used to be, I want my life back

I walked through the door and sat down at the bar

Had a shot and a beer lit up a cigar it ran through my head,

Every word that old man said

I had a woman that loved me with all of her heart

But my pride and my temper made it all fall apart

I was to headstrong to admit when I was wrong

It's been 6 months since she moved out

Guess my pride aint helping me now

{chorus 2}

I want my life back, I want that house that I called home,

I want to hear her voice and see her face every day when I get off

I want what I had when I laid down in the arms of the woman that believed in me

And that man I used to be, I want my life back

{bridge}

I paid my tab and left that bar

Grabbed my phone jumped in my car

I dialed her number and when she said hello

{{repeat chorus 2}}
