Leslie Low - Finer Life

Somehow somebody came to me
To punish me for what I've done
He asked me a matter-of-factly
"Do you know what you have done?"
I said, "I do and don't mind me asking
Ain't you so-and-so's son?"
He said, "You bet I am and because of you
My father died before the war begun!"
"Down to the low life, well do I like it?"
"No finer time to be alive"
"It's more like a dull life crawling with me"
"Oh yes, I remember," I said
"I pulled the trigger and aimed it at his head"
You said you've come to end my misery
But can't you see I've paid my dues already
My hands are all tied up in a sack
My sack's connected to my back
My back's grown tone to the bone
For God's sake leave me alone
I said, "Why don't you go home and leave me alone?
Don't you think I've suffered enough
Why don't you leave me alone?
Give me a break, don't break my legs
For God's sake haven't you grown?"
