(Bob McDill)      Here I am a livin' fast, smokin' Lucky's and talkin' trash   Hangin' out on a barroom stool actin' like a fool   Out of work and out of luck stay out late and I drink too much   You see my face all over town I ought to settle down.      Yes, I guess I must confess   Look at me, my life's a mess   Just like a rockin' chair   I can't seem to get nowhere.      All my friends are married now guess I missed the boat somehow   They all moved away last year but I'm still here   Talkin' big and wastin' time I tell the girls I'm twenty-nine   But lately I think it shows I'm gettin' old.      Yes, I guess I must confess   Look at me, my life's a mess   Just like a rockin' chair   I can't seem to get nowhere.      --- Instrumental ---      Yes, I guess I must confess   Look at me, my life's a mess   Just like a rockin' chair   I can't seem to get nowhere...      Here I am a livin' fast, smokin' Lucky's and talkin' trash   Hangin' out on a barroom stool actin' like a fool   Out of work and out of luck stay out late and I drink too much   You see my face all over town I ought to settle down...
