If I Were You lyrics

If I were you I would gladly loan to me A dollar or two So I could eat yeah and maybe Get just one good night of sleep But I'm not And I'm stranded like a cast away in this town And you seem so unwilling to help a fellow When hes down If I were you Thats what I would do If I were you I wouldnt be out on these streets The whole night through Yeah I'd have a job And a pretty wife that I could come home to But I dont And I have twenty cents left to my name And your the only one left here That I have to blame If I were you Thats what I'd do But sir its not my way To take from you The things I havent earned Wish I could go back and heed The Lessons I have learned But I Cant So you gladly put your money In this sack Yes sir this thing is loaded And I have to hammer back If I were you Thats what I'd do If I were you Thats what I'd do
