Well, I remember what you told me, said drinking was unholySo Lord, can you point me to the creek?And I still keep it with me, tucked under all the memoriesYour voice echoing throughout those treesAnd through unfavored weather and holes in the weatherThese boots still covered in tarWell, I'm still praying to the heavens and hoping for them silenceBut hope only gets a man so farWell, this game of life is heavy on my heartAnd love is tough, but loneliness is twice as hardAnd I'll carry that about everywhere I goWell, they say prayer sure makes diamondsHow the hell am I still cold?No, I've seen heaven without dying, met the devil without tryingAnd they both seem to wanna talk to meBut I'm all out of luck now and my dreams ain't worth a buckHow it's tough trying to land on my feetWell, this game of life is heavy on my heartAnd love is tough, but loneliness is twice as hardAnd I'll carry that about everywhere I goWell, they say prayer sure makes diamondsHow the hell am I still cold?And every day it's getting colder since that day in OctoberWhen you told me it was over, so I leftCause if you need me, well, I told you I'm on the better sideIt's over, trying to find a four-leaf cloverTo get me out of this messThis game of life plays heavy on my heartAnd love is tough, but loneliness is twice as hardAnd I'll carry that about everywhere I goWell, they say prayer sure makes diamondsHow the hellThis game of life plays heavy on my heartAnd love is tough, but loneliness is twice as hardAnd I'll carry that about everywhere I goWell, they say prayer sure makes diamondsHow the hell am I still cold?
