Life Full Of Pain

He had a life full of pain
Lived a life full of hope
Stayed in bars drinking jars of
Irish whiskey on the run
In a world full of tears
In a world of mistrust
He just lived on borrowed time and
Wasted all these precious years

Another day of agony, another night in hell
He hit the bottom of the barrel
Saced by the bell
They grabbed him, they punched him
They slapped him in the face
He stumbled, he tumbled
He felt like a disgrace

A dirty shirt, a lousy cap, oh
What an ugly sight no money in his pockets
All stolen in a fight
His memory lapsed on his
Way to Portobello Lane
He stuttered, he uttered
He crawled through the rain

A bloody nose, blind in one eye
With demons in his head
Beggars can't be chosen
He's completely in the red
He drew a blank, went down the drain
Was down in the dumps
The cards were stocked against him
Lost all his bloody trumps

Such a shame! Down the drain!
What a game! A bloody game!
