[Intro]
What a way to live

[Verse 1]
Each night I make the rounds
To every spot in town
A lonely man with lonely time to kill

[Refrain]
What a way to live

[Verse 2]
The paths my memories take
Just make my poor heart ache
I think of her I guess I always will

[Refrain]
What a way to live

[Verse 3]
I'd rather lay me down tonight
And never wake again
Than to face another day
The shape my life is in

[Verse 4]
The jukebox playing loud
A face among the crowd
So much like hers it makes my heart stand still
