lyrics

I’m not the best lover
And I’m not the best friend
I had some hard times
All my money was spent

In the booze, in the drugs
I found somethin’ real
But I lost your memory
It ain’t worth the deal

Now I spent thousand nights
And I spent thousand days
Drinkin’ my own blood
Ramblin’ my way

But the only road
I tried to get through
Is a sleep full of bad dreams
And of memories of you

The curse it is said and I’ll never come up
‘Cause the Bells are a ringin’ and I’m drunk as fuck
So leave me alone and I drink myself up
We’re more than a handful you see !

I’m a wild rover
For many a year
But this time my head’s down
And I’m full of despair

I saw countless beauties
In the South, in the North
Every time I went down
It’s your eyes I called forth

I was saving my heart
For there’s no room inside
‘Cept for my friends,
My son and my bride

But I went away
On a cold snowy night
Since this day I’m a mess
And I’m tore up inside

The curse it is said and I’ll never come up
‘Cause the Bells are a ringin’ and I’m drunk as fuck
So leave me alone and I drink myself up
We’re more than a handful you see !

I struggle and strive
To be a better man
But I’m soaked so high
And the tears never end

I headed to the east end
To bury my soul
With my dog and a nickel
And the Bell, and the toll

I went far from my home
I went far from my love
I’m a long gone rover
With no god above

With no ships full of gold
And no love for his own
A man sure dies
And never grow old

The curse it is said and I’ll never come up
‘Cause the Bells are a ringin’ and I’m drunk as fuck
So leave me alone and I drink myself up
We’re more than a handful you see !
