Sagacity Gone Lyrics

I went back to the corner store
To buy another round
Found a penny gone and picked it up
But it was faced head down
I represent all that's wrong
And I resent the law
Cat tail below my rocking chair
I learned to spit before I could crawl

I think I need a hit of morphine
Just enough to ease my troubled mind
If I die a simple man of patience
Lord, I'll be fine, yeah… yes, I'll be fine

I went down to the river side
To sober up and rest my head
I got drunk there and stayed all day
[Hook: ing bait without a catch]
I never thought much on God before
And I'll be gone before long
I asked him why he went and sent me here
To stink and reek upon all

I think another drink might kill me
But that's god's will, yeah, it's my time
If I die a simple man of patience
Lord, I'll be fine, yeah… yes, I'll be fine

I think I need a hit of morphine
Just enough to ease my troubled mind
If I die a simple man of patience
Lord, I'll be fine, yeah… yes, I'll be fine
