As lonely as the days are long As dark as the night birds song This strange way of living Split my heart dry I'm lonesome, but I'm too stoned to cry My clothes are all ragged and worn Like a sailor that's caught In the worst kind of storm The water keeps rising Oh, but I'm getting by I keep walking, but I'm too stoned to fly There's whiskey and wine And bells are calling For the pain Fasties and women And a little cocaine I'm walking the line Between hell bent and high I ain't happy Just too stoned to cry I'm living from town to town I'm living from town to town I've always been lost, I ain't never been found.They said Jesus could save me, but that was a lie.I keep trying, but I'm too stoned to die.I keep trying, but I'm too stoned to die.I keep trying, but I'm too stoned to die.I keep trying, but I'm too stoned to die.No, I ain't happy, just too stoned to cry.
