​
I know my street, that's where I live
I never take, I always give
They always leave me on the shelf
I live my life all by myself

My car ain't big, I can't go fast
And ev'ry drink I take's the last
I'm always tryin' to save my health
I live my life all by myself

Ev'rything I have I own and no one lives on me
I'm a man who stands alone
That's where I'll be
That's where I'll be

So take your hand down off my chair
'cause I'm the one who's sitting there
And I ain't neve seen no wealth
I live my live all by myself

My car ain't big, I can't go fast
And ev'ry drink I take's the last
I'm always tryin' to save my health
I live my life all by myself

Ev'rything I have I own and no one lives on me
I'm a man who stands alone
That's where I'll be
That's where I'll be
That's where I'll be

So take your hand down off my chair
'cause I'm the one who's sitting there
And I ain't never seen no wealth
I live my live all by myself

I live my life all by myself
