You sit there a-cryin', cryin' in your beer
You say you got trouble, my friend listen here
Don't tell me your trouble, I got enough of my own
Be thankful you're livin', drink up and go home
I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the can
Lost my life and family, no one to call friend
Don't tell me your trouble, got enough of my own
Be thankful you're livin', drink up and go home
Well, there stands a blind man, a man that can't see
Yet he's not complainin', why should you and me
Don't tell me your trouble, I got enough of my own
Be thankful you're livin', drink up and go home
I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the can
Lost my life and family, no one to call friend
Don't tell me your trouble, got enough of my own
Be thankful you're livin', drink up and go home
I'm fresh out of prison, six years in the can
Lost my life and family, no one to call friend
Don't tell me your trouble, got enough of my own
Be thankful you're livin', drink up and go home
