MISERY MAN

Misery Man
by I. Kramer


VERSE

If whiskey were water I’d be able to stand
If tears were gold I’d never work again
If she’d give me the truth there’d be no hole in my head
If she’d give me a gun I’d take the bullet instead
Ain’t no hurt a woman can’t give

CHORUS

But I’m in love
She’s got my blood on her hands
I’m in love, love, love
Now I’m a misery man
I’m in love
If only I ran
Now I’m in love, love, love
Now I’m a misery man

VERSE 2

If she’d leave me a rope I could pull myself up
If she’d leave me alone maybe that would be
enough
But if she leaves me I know that will not lift the curse,
‘Cause if she leaves me I know I will only feel worse
Ain’t no joy a woman can’t give

CHORUS

VERSE 3

When god made Eve he took a rib from man
A lump of clay, that was the Master Plan
You could hear him laugh, then he was gone
Did he want it this way or did something go wrong?
Ain’t no man a woman can’t touch

CHORUS
