Ain't life strange Ain't it funny Nothing matters much but love and money Things don't work out the way you reckonded Money comes first And the love comes second Cigarettes make the sun come up Whiskey makes the sun go down And in between We do a lot of standing around It's all I can do To make it through the day She wrapped it all in darkness And I can't find my way, and I'm walking down the sidewalks of LA Wishing I had a warmer jacket And the leaves are falling down I'm just another man With an empty handed heart In an eee-mpty hearted town It started out alright Ended up all wrong Shoulda done, shoulda done That's my song Now the night is falling hard and fast All dressed up for the masquerade And the lights of the city stretch as far as the eye can see Look what wonders man has made (2x) I'm walking down the sidewalks of LA Wishing I had a warmer jacket And the leaves are falling down I'm just another man With an empty handed heart In an eee-mpty hearted town I'm walking down the sidewalks of LA Wishing I had a warmer jacket And something more to say
