Nothing Left to Lose - Bodh'aktan

The week has just begun, let’s have a little fun

Let’s have a drink or two, I’ll lift a glass with you

They say that I’m a fool and I’ll drink my life away

But I’m a happy man, and this way I’m gonna stay

It’s better to be broke, you’ve nothing left to lose

For he’s a happy man who lives without a care

To laugh and drink and sing is what we always choose

It’s better to be drunk, there’s nothing can compare

The tax collector said, he’s going to sell me bed

But I’ll be laughing last, the ground is warm and dry

And if your wife complains, to her you must explain

That if you keep a’drinking she’ll be pretty by and by!

It’s better to be broke, you’ve nothing left to lose

For he’s a happy man who lives without a care

To laugh and drink and sing is what we always choose

It’s better to be drunk, there’s nothing can compare

And when the whistle blows, the reckoning will show

With nothing I arrived, and with nothing I will go

Who watches o’er our days, 'tis Heaven only knows…

I pray that God will take me where the whiskey flows

It’s better to be broke, you’ve nothing left to lose

For he’s a happy man who lives without a care

To laugh and drink and sing is what we always choose

It’s better to be drunk, there’s nothing can compare

Most of all

Well if your wife complains, to her you must explain

That if you keep a’drinking she’ll be pretty by and by!
