The Life and Soul - Mamas Gun, ANDY PLATTS, Terry Lewis

He’s holding up but sure enough he’s

Tearing at the seams, beat up and

Tried like a little rag doll

But he’s old enough and strong enough

To remember the man he used to be

The life and soul

But when he’s home sitting all alone

Too drunk to be around anyone

Too blind to see all the damage done

Man that ain’t no way to have fun

Somebody said happiness ain’t getting

What you want but wanting what you get

It’s a state of mind, let yourself go free

Everybody’s searching for someone

They think they oughta, trying to wanna

Never never never really be

Cos when you’re home sitting all alone

Too tired to be around anyone, too blind

To see you’re not the only one

Man that ain’t no way to have fun
