Couldn't Do Nothin' Right

The lamp is broken on the mantle

My mind is blown and I'm turning away

It's Gettin' more than I can handle

It's Gettin' more than I can say

I couldn't stay here if I wanted

I couldn't stay here if I tried

You were always disappointed in me

Guess I could never do nothing right

Well, I worked hard to make a living

To make that good life dream come true

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 disappointed in me

Guess I could never do nothing right

You cut my heart like the cards on the table

It seemed like fun for you to keep playin' on

Well, I let you in as long as I was able

But now all your games have done been run

I couldn't stay here if I wanted

I couldn't stay here if I tried

You were always disappointed in me

Guess I could never do nothing right
