Once upon a time They called me the bleeder Well swimmin' up this river With sentimental fever But this ain't my first ride It ain't my last try Just got to keep movin' on If they catch me ever They'll throw me back forever I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed I sent it off in a letter I need somethin' better Than a nail and a hammer To put me back together But this ain't my first ride It ain't my last try Just got to keep a-movin on Got to keep this together Maybe next time is never I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed Sometimes I must confess I do feel a little over dressed Sometimes it's hard to tell the wishing from the well Where you threw the penny and where it fell I guess I should I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds I guess I should be ashamed But I forget to be vain Well I did the best I could I guess But everything just bleeds They say you're only sad and lonely And no one is impressed
