I've worked hard all my life
Wondering what's next to come
But the future's looking like a knife
And I don't wanna run

I've got a mean and desperate wife
She's taking me for a ride
She's up and left me all alone
For another lonely life

But it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none

Oh it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none

I see the church lines form
I see the schoolgirl uniforms
I hand the homeless man a dime
As I slip into the bar

I've seen the fates of crime
And all my friends are doing time
I said the world don't owe me anything
On that I can rely

But it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none

Oh it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none

I've worked hard all my life
Wondering what's next to come
But the future's looking like a knife
And I don't wanna run

But it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none

Oh it's alright
I've already won
I've got a thousand reasons why
She don't owe me none
