           E (022100@1)             AThat's (x02220@1)the way that things are

If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar
If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar

That's what it is
I'm a scumbag, a lout,
That's the way that things are

And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar
If you name me a street then I'll name you a bar
And I'll walk right through Hell just to buy you a jar
