lyrics

The Drowning Man

There goes another love
I’ve lost another one
I had to go and open my big mouth
why cant I just keep it shut?

chorus:
what am i gonna say
to keep you from walking away (4x)

I am a drowning man
I am a whining man
I am a sleepy man
I better wake up! wake up! wake up! wake up!

I am a selfish man
I am a wasteful man
I am a silly man
I better wake up! wake up! wake up! wake up!


is this really all there is?
I was thinking there’d be more
this couldn’t be all my share
why won't you show me yours?

chorus:

I locked my keys in the car
now i cant get into my house
life is goes so much easier for you
I’ll never figure it out.
