Better Off Dead - Bill Withers[00:00:01]
She couldn't stand me anymore[00:00:09]
So she just took the kids and went [00:00:12]
You see I've got a drinkin' problem[00:00:20]
All the money that we had I spent [00:00:23]
Now I must die by my own hand[00:00:31]
‘cause I'm not man enough to live alone [00:00:33]
Hey hey she's better off without me[00:00:40]
And I'm better off dead now that she's gone [00:00:44]
Ah she gave the most[00:00:52]
Took the least[00:00:54]
She even had the priest come to our home [00:00:55]
And I cried and prayed and promised[00:01:03]
That I'd leave the stuff alone [00:01:07]
Now I must leave what I can't face[00:01:13]
I hope she finds the kids a happy home [00:01:16]
Hey hey she's better off without me[00:01:23]
And I'm better off dead now that she's gone [00:01:26]
She used to call her friend and cry[00:01:35]
Then the man cut off the telephone [00:01:38]
She'd sit and cry while I went out[00:01:46]
And pawned the things we owned [00:01:49]
Now I must die by my own hand[00:01:55]
‘cause I'm not man enough to live alone [00:01:58]
Hey hey she's better off without me[00:02:04]
And I'm better off dead[00:02:08]
