paroles de chanson Better Off Dead - Jose James

Ah she couldn′t stand me anymore
So she just took the kids and went
You see, I've got a drinkin′ problem
All the money that we had I spent

Now I must die by my own hand
'Cause I'm not man enough to live alone
She′s better off without me
And I′m better off dead now that she's gone

Ah, she gave the most, she took the least
She even had the priest come to our home
And I cried and prayed and promised God
That I′d leave the stuff alone

Now I must die by my own hand
'Cause I′m not man enough to live alone
She's better off without me
And I′m better off dead now that she's gone, yes
Now that she's gone
Now that she′s gone

Ooh she used to call her friend and cry
Then the man cut off the telephone
She′d sit and cry while I went out
And pawned the things we owned

Now I must die by my own hand
'Cause I′m not man enough to live alone
She's better off without me and I′m better off
Dead now that she's gone gone gone gone gone gone
I′m better off dead
I'm better off dead
I say I'm better off dead
I′m better off dead
I say I′m better off dead yeah
I'm better off dead
I say I′m better off dead yeah
Now that she's gone
I say I′m better off dead
I'm better off dead
I say I′m better off dead yeah
Leave the stuff alone
Leave the stuff alone
I'm better off dead
I'm better off dead
Now that she′s gone
Now that she′s gone
I'm better off dead
Now that she′s gone
I'm better off dead
Now that she′s gone
I say I'm better off dead
Now that she′s gone
I'm better off dead yeah
Now that she's gone gone gone gone
I′m better off dead
Now that she′s gone
I say I'm better off dead
I′m better off dead
I'm better off dead
I′m better off dead
I'm better off dead.
