I ain’t nothin’ but a low life, Nothin’ but wasted time And broken dreams Nailed together To a crooked cross; I ain’t nothin’ when it all falls away, Nothin’ at all when the curtain parts, When the stage clears, When the spot light is on me, When the audience of the ghosts of loves past Rises in harmony, Floating heavenward To serenade my swan song The only way they know how – Leavin’ me with nothin’ but my low life.
