Lyrics Randy Newman

Randy Newman

Guilty

Yes, baby, I've been drinkin'

And I shouldn't come, know

But I found myself in trouble, darling

And I had nowhere else to go

Got some whisky from the barman

Got some cocaine from a friend

I just had to keep on movin'

'Til I was back in your arms again

I'm guilty, baby I'm guilty

And I'll be guilty all the rest of my life

How come I never do what I'm supposed to do

How come nothin' that I try to do ever turns out right?

You know, you know how it is with me, baby

You know, you know I just can't stand myself

It takes a whole lot of medicine

For me to pretend that I'm somebody else
