Verse #1 Everyday at 5am, he wakes up and drives himself to work In his black suit and tailored shirt He is gonna make this sale and gets what he’s worth No matter what the cost. Who he hurts, he comes first Chorus #1 And he says I enjoy the finer things Take a look at my life, can’t you tell I’m so happy? With my success Who needs family, who needs friends? Who needs God when you have yourself? Have yourself, have yourself Verse #2 He gets home to his kids and wife Eating at the table, but he doesn’t have time Walks on through, got things to do They can take care of themselves I don’t need them, don’t need this Dusty bible hanging on my shelf (oh) Chorus #2 And he says I enjoy the finer things Take a look at my life, can’t you tell I’m so happy? With my success Who needs family, who needs friends? Who needs God when you have yourself?
Have yourself, I have myself Verse #3 Different morning, same routine Finds a note from his wife tells him that she’s gone Taking the kids, she’s not coming home. On the floor looks like a mess Empty house, whiskey on his breath On his breath He’s all that’s left Chorus #3 And he says I enjoy the finer things Take a look at my life, can’t you tell I’m so happy? With my success (oh) Who needs family, who needs friends? Who needs God when you have yourself? Have yourself and I have myself Bridge If there is something that can be learned We only have so much time on this earth Make sure that God comes first Are family and friends people you see right through If your schedule is full then you need to make room Make your money, don’t let it make you Don’t let it make you
