lyrics

He drinks mean wine because he can't afford the rest
he says life is what happens when you don't deserve the best
He was a victim all his life, if only of circumstance
Never knew how to give himself a chance
He ain’t asking for much, just one more dance

Some people got it all even when the rains falling down
Some people were just born to own the town
But all he's ever owned is his mistakes
He’s deathly afraid of counting among the fakes
He ain’t asking for much, just one or two lucky breaks

He finds it in his heart to look the other way
He says life’s all about knowing there’s always another day
He says only idiots never change their stance
And I try to always get paid in advance
He ain’t asking for much, just one more dance
