Stumblin' Down the Road

I told my baby pack your things and hit the road
I found out she’d been tellin' me lies by the truck load
But then I run into her lawyer guess she already know’d
He said she told him not to cut me any slack
He said she said «I would never win her back»
The next thing I remember I was beltin' down Jack
Stumblin' down the road
Stumblin' down the road
Big Bill behind the bar said «let her go,
It’s ain’t no use beggin' and pleadin', if she’ll just say no
It’s time to empty out the garbage, the king is home»
I threw’m a 50 and went stumblin' out to the street
I guess I took too long a look at this nice girl’s treats
Cause out of nowhere comes this big old fella and he’s mean
Stumblin' down the road
Stumblin' down the road
All I remember is wakin' up, face down in the gutter
I sat up, wiped my eyes and tried to piece it together
My head was poundin' like a train, but it didn’t matter
The sun comes up and I find that I’m still alone
All beat up and dirty from my late night stroll
I guess it’s time to straighten up I’m getting' old
Stumblin' down the road
Stumblin' down the road
I learned a little lesson and it lightened my load
When I’ve been tricked and cheated and I’m out on my own
I keep my eyes on the ground and stumble on home
I’m stumblin' down the road
Stumblin' down the road
Stumblin' down the road
