[00:00:00] Confessions of a Broken Man - Porter Wagoner

[00:00:00] I'm just askin' you to listen not to understand

[00:00:10] These confessions of a broken man

[00:00:20] I don't know where my story starts or I'd go back to them

[00:00:25] All I know it's a sad sad tale so for it has no end

[00:00:32] I know I drank too much though I didn't take thirst

[00:00:36] Oh I'd have a beer or two

[00:00:38] And it just seemed to go from bad to worse

[00:00:43] Then one day I noticed my money

[00:00:45] Was goin' out faster than it was comin' in

[00:00:48] And I got scared and I started gamblin'

[00:00:53] And I'm the kind that just never seems to win

[00:00:58] I had a woman guess every man does

[00:01:01] And every man thinks his is the best mine was

[00:01:06] Stuck by me through thick and thin

[00:01:09] Till it just got too thin I guess

[00:01:14] She walked in one day and said she had believed me

[00:01:19] I could've sworn I saw big tear in her eye

[00:01:22] I heard the other day that she got married again

[00:01:27] I hope he treats her better than I

[00:01:32] Well if you get me idea that

[00:01:33] I'm some son of a bum you're catchin' on pretty fast

[00:01:39] And if you wonder if I've turned into a wino

[00:01:43] For these are all my fingerprints on this glass

[00:01:49] I've been sittin' in this bar since they opened up this mornin'

[00:01:53] And it's almost time to close tonight

[00:01:58] I guess it's about time to go

[00:01:59] Find me a gutter tuck myself in tonight

[00:02:05] Where does a man go when he's already on the bottom

[00:02:10] It's really not much choice he's got

[00:02:13] Either picks himself up

[00:02:14] And tries again or just lays back down to rot

[00:02:19] No life starts out to be like mine pain is never planned

[00:02:25] And yet here I sit with nothing in the world

[00:02:31] But these confessions of a broken man

[00:02:35] I'm just askin' you to listen not to understand

[00:02:45] These confessions of a broken man
