You're On Your Own

lyrics

You're On Your Own

I've worked so hard all my life
nobody come to see me here
nobody come to see me here
nobody see me here
and I'm staring at the future in the wall and death is near
and I wish I had some money to leave you
but it's been a bad year

Ain't got nobody to love me and I'm all alone
I'm all alone I'm all alone
and outside the leaves are flying and there ain't no snow
and I wish I had some money to leave you
but you're on your own

I'm proud of all of my children but are they proud of me
are they proud of me
are they proud of me
they hardly ever come to visit and they only want
to leave me be
and I wish I had some money to leave them
but the pain is on me

The world is cruel on a poor man who worked hard all his time
all of his time
all of his time
and when you ask for a hand that's the day that they'll
hand you a knife
and I wish I had some money to leave you
but ain't it a crime

Bandcamp generously sends 85% of your support directly toward my humble living expenses.

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.

For best audio results, download music at minimum 320 MP3. WAV is best. Thanks 🙏
