Lyrics

I sold my soul for the second time
Cos the man, he don't pay me
I begged my landlord for some more time
He said: Son, the bills are waiting

My best friend called me the other night
He said: Man, you crazy?
My girlfriend told me to get a life
She said: Boy, you lazy!

But I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute
A man's got a limit
I cant get a life if my heart's not in it

I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute
A man's got a limit
I cant get a life if my heart's not in it

I lost my faith in the summer time
Cos it don't stop raining
The sky all day is as black as night
But I'm not complaining

I begged my doctor for one more line
He said: Son, words fail me
It ain't no place to be killing time
But I guess I'm just lazy

I don't mind
As long as there's a bed beneath the stars that shine
I'll be fine, if you give me a minute
A man's got a limit
I cant get a life if my heart's not in it
