Have you ever felt like jumping out of a window
On account of your pride
Have you ever talked like you were losing your marbles
Cause someone hurt you deep inside

Well I had a girl so young and so healthy
I lived for her night and day
But all of her friends said since I wasn't wealthy
There'd be no room for a stranger to stay
No room for a stranger

I played the game and I spent all my money
I went out and tore up this town
If I had any guts and a little more whiskey
I would burn that woman down, yeah
Oh burn her down
Look what she did to me
Why can't she let me be?

Have you ever felt like scum in the gutter
Well that's how I felt that day
Have you ever talked like you were loose in the rudder
There'll be no room for a stranger today
No room for a stranger
Ain't it a shame
