The Middle

Living in a world, so cold, so crowded Fighting for your soul, don't you ever doubt it? You know it's true Won't take much to wake up the beast in you You know when I'm drinking, all I need is a drink And I can't take no more Sitting in the middle, no Sitting in the middle, no No No Love and money, easy come, easy go Always seems sunny on the other side of the road You know it's true Don't need no good friends, just one bad friend will do But when I'm drinking, all I need is a drink But I can't take no more Living in the middle, no Living in the middle, no No Good Lord, have mercy, no more shaking in my shoes So, goodbye to misery, man, that's yesterday's news You'll have to choose Can't abide a lie, but you sure can't stand the truth But when I'm drinking, don't need nothing but a drink And I can't take no more Living in the middle, no Living in the middle, no No
