Life has made me Pay an awful price I tried to gamble with ya But you was using crooked dice Somebody gotta suffer Somebody sure gotta feel some pain If it's gonna rain down misery How come it always fall on me? Money, you made me Some very fast friends And just like you made them You're gonna break them in the end Somebody gotta suffer Somebody sure gotta feel some pain If it's gonna rain down misery How come it all has to fall on me? I've had my share Of love, life and money Lost all three ways I'm here to tell you that sure ain't funny Me and my money parted So did my love and I Life don't mean a thing And I wished that I could die Life did made A whole lotta fools Always teaching something That you never learn in school Somebody gotta suffer Somebody sure gotta feel some pain If it's gonna rain down misery How come it all has to fall on me?
