Bobby Bare - Can't Seem To Get Nowhere lyrics

Here I am a livin' fast smokin' Lucky's and talkin' trash

Hangin' out on a barroom stool actin' like a fool

Out of work and out of luck stay out late and I drink too much

You see my face all over town I ought to settle down

Yes I guess I must confess look at me my life's a mess

Just like a rockin' chair I can't seem to get nowhere

All my friends are married now guess I missed the boat somehow

They all moved away last year but I'm still here

Talkin' big and wastin' time I tell the girls I'm 29

But lately I think it shows I'm gettin' old

Yes I guess I must confess...

[ guitar ]

Yes I guess I must confess..

Here I am a livin' fast...
