There’s a hole in my bed where I ain’t seen you for days
Got a pain in my head ‘cos I’m back to my bad old ways
I can’t get out, you won’t come in
And you can’t see the state I’m in
On top of it all, my A string’s gone again

Everyday I’m a-wasting away, it’s oh so bad
My mind’s gone dead and my eyes are red, it’s oh so sad
Nobody calls, they’ve had enough
I’ve got to stop myself drinking this stuff
On top of it all, my A string’s gone again

Oh no, oh no, man overboard you know, and I’m gonna drown
Oh no, oh no, I’m wrecking myself and I’m running around

Save my soul, I said save my soul
Ooh save my soul, I’m losing my grip
I think I’m gonna slip, oh

I gotta do something or I might as well be living in hell
I gotta find someone who can break me away from this spell
It’s getting to me, it’s bringing me down
I’m cold and I’m lonley since you ain’t around
And on top of it all, my A string’s gone again

Oh no, oh no, man overboard you know, and I’m gonna drown
Oh no, oh no, I’m wrecking myself and I’m running around

Save my soul, save my soul
Save my soul, I’m losing my grip
I think I’m gonna slip, oh
