Songtext von Coward

Oh dear mother why did you give me a birth I didn't ask to be born Oh dear father can't you see what you've done I'm not the one you wanted me to become A coward I am and a good-for-nothing Still I can walk over you When my head is down and I'm in distress Moonshine is my gentle mistress A drunkard I am and a yokel, too Still I can walk over you My hand is poor and I have to bluff But cheating to win is not even enough Walking alone, testing the water Hiding skeletons in my closet A coward, a drunkard, a withdrawn, a stranger What the hell I feel no shame What the hell I fell no shame So dear mother why did you give me a birth I didn't ask to be born So dear father can't you see what you've done I'm not the one you wanted me to become Walking alone, testing the water Hiding skeletons in my closet A coward, a drunkard, a withdrawn, a stranger
