Running on Fuel

I wrote this song for all my no good friends
 Who's just getting by, just like me
 Leaving the bar, my breath's
 As hard as regular gasoline
 Fire up a bone while I'm swerving home Blowing smoke like a model t
 Wake up to a cup as black as tar, go to work
 And get beat like a mule
 I'm just as empty as I am poor
 So I'm running on fuel
 I'm running on fuel, it's all I can do
 To get up and make it through
 Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
 Cigarettes all day long
 I'm running low on faith and lower on pride
 I'm out of love, but I still gotta drive
 I feel like a fool, but it's all I can do
 I'm running on fuel
 I ain't lazy, and I ain't no martyr,
 I ain't leaning on uncle sam
 I just drink coffee like crazy, whiskey like water
 And smoke like a power plant
 I'm running on fuel, it's all I can do
 To get up and make it through
 Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
 Cigarettes all day long
 I'm running low on faith and lower on pride
 I'm out of love, but I still gotta drive
 I feel like a fool, but it's all I can do
 I'm running on fuel
 Sometimes getting by
 Seems harder than dying
 But something in a man
 Just makes him keep on trying
 Ain't got no wife,
 Ain't got no kids that I know of,
 It's hard enough as it is
 To work all day then make it to that barstool
 I'm running on fuel
 I'm running on fuel, it's all I can do
 To get up and make it through
 Coffee in the morning, whiskey in the evening
 Cigarettes all day long
 I'm running low on faith and lower on pride
 I'm out of love, but I still gotta drive
 I feel like a fool, but it's all I can do
 I'm running on fuel
