Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sick of this life
Not that you'd care
I'm not the only one
With whom these feelings I share
[Verse 2]
Nobody understands
Quite why we're here
We're searchin' for answers
That never appear
[Verse 3]
But maybe if I looked real hard I'd
I'd see you're tryin' too
To understand this life that we're all goin' through
(Then when she said she was going to like, wreck my car...)
(I didn't know what to do)
[Verse 4]
Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny, but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
I guess some things never change
Never change
[Verse 5]
I met an old cowboy
I saw the look in his eyes
Somethin' tells me he's been here before
'Cause experience makes you wise
I was only a small child when the thought first came to me
That I'm a son of a gun and the gun of a son that brought back the devil in me
[Verse 6]
But sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
I guess some things never change
Never change
[Verse 7]
I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul
Still wet behind the years
I been around this track a couple o' times
But now the dust is startin' to clear
Oh yeah!!!
[Verse 8]
Sometimes I feel like I'm beatin' a dead horse
An I don't know why you'd be bringin' me down
I'd like to think that our love's worth a tad more
It may sound funny but you'd think by now I'd be smilin'
I'd be smilin'
No way I'd be smilin'
Ooh smilin'
[Verse 9]
Sick of this life
Not that you'd care
I'm not the only one
With whom these feelings I share
