If you've ever drunk yourself to sleep with tear stung eyes and a broken hand, you can't help but love him.
Not Crap.

Not crap. Arguably the finest lyricist American soil has produced.

13got me through my darkest days with his double shot of pathos & humor.
i like listening to him & imagining how my namesake grandpap (who i never got to meet) listened to him too.
no matter how i struggle & strive, i'll never get out of this world alive: universal as the buddha.

I had lots of luck but it's all been bad
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
My fishin' pole's brok,e the creek is full of sand
My woman run away with another man
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
A distant uncle passed away and left me quite a batch
And I was livin' high until that fatal day
A lawyer proved I wasn't born
I was only hatched.
Ev'rything's agin' me and it's got me down
If I jumped in the river I would prob'ly drown
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
These shabby shoes I'm wearin' all the time
Are full of holes and nails
And brother if I stepped on a worn out dime
I bet a nickel I could tell you if it was heads or tails.
I'm not gonna worry wrinkles in my brow
'Cause nothin's ever gonna be alright nohow
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
I could buy a Sunday suit and it would leave me broke
If it had two pair of pants I would burn the coat
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
If it was rainin' gold I wouldn't stand a chance
I wouldn't have a pocket in my patched up pants
No matter how I struggle and strive
I'll never get out of this world alive.
