[Verse 1]
Well, I'm out on a tear 'cause she's tearing me apart
If I look rough on the outside, you ought to see my heart
And this look in my eyes shows beyond a doubt
That since my woman left I'm down and out
[Chorus]
Well, I'm down at the bar, out of my mind
Tighter than an eight-day clock with no way to unwind
That jukebox cries the blues like it knows what I'm about
Since my woman left I'm down and out
[Verse 2]
Well, I'm down to my last dollar, but I don't really care
My friends have all got whiskey and they don't mind if I share
They know how it feels to have your heart torn inside out
Since by woman left I'm down and out
[Chorus]
Well, I'm down at the bar, out of my mind
Tighter than an eight-day clock with no way to unwind
That jukebox cries the blues like it knows what I'm about
Since my woman left I'm down and out
[Outro]
Since my woman left, since my woman left
Since my woman left I'm down and out
