[00:16.447]He was warmin' his hands with a hot coffee cup
[00:20.503]And pourin' in whiskey
[00:22.129]As I walked up, he never blinked an eye
[00:27.166]He just asked for a light
[00:31.556]I noticed he didn't have soles on his shoes
[00:34.904]So I pulled out a twenty, said go buy some food
[00:38.778]But he just stared at his cup like I wasn't there
[00:46.015]Then he looked at me, said son that's nice
[00:49.423]But there's some things money can't buy
[00:52.325]I want my life back, I want that house that I called home
[00:59.852]I want that job I worked for 22 years before I got laid off
[01:07.232]I want what I had when I laid down in the arms
[01:13.725]Of the woman that believed in me and that man I used to be
[01:22.036]I want my life back
[01:30.539]I walked through the door and sat down at the bar
[01:33.843]Had a shot and a beer, lit up a cigar
[01:37.608]It ran through my head, every word that old man said
[01:44.980]I had a woman that loved me with all of her heart
[01:48.690]But my pride and my temper made it all fall apart
[01:52.312]I was too headstrong to admit when I was wrong
[01:59.862]It's been 6 months since she moved out
[02:03.349]Guess my pride ain't helping me now
[02:06.212]I want my life back, I want that house that I called home
[02:13.697]I want to hear her voice and see her face every day when I get off
[02:21.119]I want what I had when I laid down in the arms
[02:27.511]Of the woman that believed in me and that man I used to be
[02:35.837]I want my life back
[02:41.037]I paid my tab and left that bar
[02:44.435]I grabbed my phone, jumped in my car
[02:48.076]I dialed her number and when she said hello, I said
[02:56.282]I want my life back, I want that house that I called home
[03:03.458]I want to hear your voice and see your face every day when I get off
[03:10.864]I want what I had when I laid down in the arms
[03:17.339]Of the woman that believed in me and the man I used to be
[03:25.653]I want my life back, I want my life back
