Bastard Son - Left Alone

Well I know it’s no secret

I’m a drunk just like you

As I sit here counting the change in my pocket

To get a drunk and try to forget you

So many days I questioned and I wondered

Wondering what did I do wrong

Cause mama said it was all cause of me

You left that Friday night and never returned

And every day

I prayed and I wished and I wondered

When you would come back

When you would return

But I found comfort and courage

Inside of a bottle

Now I don’t care if you return

I grew up alone with no direction

I learned about life the hard way

Made mistakes and learned about rejection

I was a kid out on the streets running astray

I began to look for my place in life

Cause I knew I didn’t fit with every one

I was the kid with no father and no Monday

But I found a home in my guitar and my songs

Now I don’t care if you return
