What a Way to Live

(Willie Nelson/Hank Craig)



Each night I make the rounds

To every spot in town

A lonely man with lonely time to kill

All I can say is what a way to live.



The paths my memories take

Just make my poor heart ache

I think of her I guess I always will

All I can say is what a way to live.



I'd rather lay me down tonight

And never wake again

Than to face another day the shape my life is in

The jukebox playing loud

A face among the crowd

So much like hers it makes my heart stand still

All I can say is what a way to live.
