Sick of this life   Not that you'd care   I'm not the only one with   whom these feelings I share   Nobody understands, quite why we're here   We're searchin' for answers   That never appear   But maybe if I looked real hard I'd   I'd see you're tryin' too   To understand this life,   that we're all going through   (Then when she said she was gonna like   wreck my car... I didn't know what to do)   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   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   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   I ain't quite what you'd call an old soul   Still wet behind the ears   I been around this track a couple o' times   But now the dust is startin' to clear   Oh yeah!!!   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'   Ooh yeah I'd be smilin'   No way I'd be smilin'   Ooh smilin'   Sick of this life   Not that you'd care   I'm not the only one   With whom these feelings I share
