[Verse 1]
Living in a world, so cold, so crowded
Fighting for your soul, don't you ever doubt it
You know it's true
Won't take much to wake the beast in you
[Bridge 1]
You know when I'm drinking
All I need is a drink
[Chorus]
And I can't take no more
Sitting in the middle, no
Sitting in the middle, no
No, no
[Verse 2]
Love and money, easy come, easy go
Always seems sunny on the other side of the road
You know it's true
Don't need no good friends, just one bad friend will do
[Bridge 2]
But when I'm drinking
All I need is a drink
[Chorus 2]
But I can't take no more
Living in the middle, no
Living in the middle, no
No
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
Good lord have mercy
No more shaking in my shoes
Goodbye to misery
Man, that's yesterday's news
You'll have to choose
Can't abide a lie
But you sure can't stand the truth
[Bridge 3]
But when I'm drinking
Don't need nothing but a drink
[Chorus 3]
And I can't take no more
Living in the middle, no
Living in the middle, no
No
