What AM I Living For
PERFORMED BY  MARK-ALMOND

What I say to my best friend
Can't you see for a mess I made
Daddy,you talked me to drink whisky
But my mama,she died from a drinking gin
My brother,he works any coal mine
Works so hard,get his pain
My sister,she believes in sweet Lord Jesus
And she's waiting for redemption day
What am I living for?
Why am I living,
Why am I living all my life to bring up
The family children and wife
Tell me my friend hasn't that been done before

I remember my first job
I was singing where the band
Every payday came around
I take my money from the man
He said "now,spend it wisely,boy
Or save it while you have the time"
But I could drunk on stand
And I booed the fag
Now I'm standing in the unemployment line

What am I living for?
Why am I living,
Why am I living all my life to bring up
The family children and wife
Tell me my friend hasn't that been done before

I need a sweet woman
Mine
Until the sun don't shine
I came home one morning early
I found her with a friend of mine
It's not so much I needed her
But,oh,god
How to stay away
Packing my bag and I hit the road
And I've never seen her to these days

What am I living for?
Why am I living,
Why am I livng all my life to bring up
The family children and wife
Listen my friend that's all been done before
