Lyrics David Allan Coe – Couldn’t Do Nothin’ Right
Text:
The lamp is broken on the mantle
My mind is blown and I’m going away
It’s getting more than I can handel
It’s getting more than I can take
I couldn’t stay here if I wanted
I couldn’t stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
And I worked hard to make a living
To make a living good for you
But you wanted more than I was giving
I guess that was more than I could do
I couldn’t stay here if I wanted
I couldn’t stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
I couldn’t stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
And I worked hard to make a living
To make a living good for you
But you wanted more than I was giving
I guess that was more than I could do
I couldn’t stay here if I wanted
I couldn’t stay here if I tried
You were always so disappointed in me
I could never do nothing right
