Jesus, come talk to me
I am but a blind mess, I am wild and free
I know that I need us more than I need me
One more whiskey, I am wild and free
Oh, but I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Oh, yeah, I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Oh, my mother Mary, come walk with me
I am on four drugs, I am wild and free
I know that I failed less, the less I knew me
Wander through the darkness, and come walk with me
Oh, yeah I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Ayy, yeah
Oh I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know that it's not over
It's okay to let yourself hurt
Swimming in the murky water
Won't you come on out?
Ayy, yeah
You know that it's not over
It's okay to let yourself hurt
Swimming in the murky water
Won't you come on out?
Ayy, yeah
We sing a beat down washed up beggar's song
And we sing it even louder when the money is gone
Because we'll be damned if we let it keep us down
Ayy, yeah
Oh I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You know that it's not over
It's okay to let yourself hurt
Swimming in the murky water
Won't you come on out?
Ayy, yeah
You know that it's not over
It's okay to let yourself hurt
Swimming in the murky water
Won't you come on out?
Ayy, yeah
We sing a beat down washed up beggar's song
And we sing 'em even louder when the money is gone
Because we'll be damned if we let it keep us down
Ayy, yeah
Oh I'm a beat down washed up son of a bitch
I got one more cigarette and all my money is spent
But I'ma be damned if I let it keep me down
