[Verse 1]
Well, I've been drinkin' again
And I know it's a sin
But I just can't refuse an old friend
Cause life is gettin' me down
And I've been two times around
And there ain't nothing but pain around the bend

[Chorus]
I'm not made for the time
I'm born in the wrong century
There's too much craziness here
In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes

[Verse 2]
Now this old world is a fright
You know my future ain't bright
And I'd just crawl in a hole if I could
Or maybe live out in space
Or some other far away place
And not come back to this Earth till it's good

[Chorus]
Oh, but I'm dreaming again
I know that I'm here till the end, and what a long time
There's too much craziness here
In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes
Oh yeah

[Verse 3]
Well, you might think that I'm wrong
The things I say in this song
I really wish I could see it your way
But there's a storm rollin' in
And it just might be the end
So I'm praying we'll all get away

[Chorus]
Now my cup's running dry
The weight of the world gets me down
There's way too much craziness here
In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes
Oh yeah

There's nowhere to turn
So I'll just have to learn not to cry, no more
It's all I can do till we find something new
But I'll get by, you know I'll try
In twenty-five years I have used all the tears in my eyes
