[Verse 1]
He embarrasses his child and wife
Lord, he leads a miserable life
But still he thinks the bottle is his right hand
Yes and he can tear down more than he's ever built before
[Refrain]
A man can be a drunk sometimes
But a drunk can't be a man
[Verse 2]
He let's his business lag behind for the nightlife he can find
Why he does all this he'll never understand
And in the morning when he wakes up
Lord, he can't wait to fill his cup
[Refrain]
A man can be a drunk sometimes
But a drunk can't be a man
[Verse 3]
For he goes from Dr. Jekyll to Mr. Hyde
He seems proud to have the devil for his guide
If he keeps on reaching out
Lord, he needs a helping hand
[Refrain]
But a man can be a drunk sometimes
But a drunk can't be a man
Yes, man can be a drunk sometimes
But a drunk can't be a man
A Drunk Can’t Be a Man was written by George Jones & Earl Montgomery.
