Brendan James - Dirty Living lyrics

I said to my brother Life is not free He said call me weak, But for once I'm proud of me What you proud of, who you stand for Not the Lord above Dirty living got you giving never enough My sister named Maria She caught a bright, early sun With sin, and with love Like a tattoo on her arm She couldn't find no separation Between loving life and love Dirty living got her giving never enough Blame it on the doctor, He never healed your pleas Blame it on your mother, She never saw your needs Looking up to heaven, I tell you Sinner, you've got to believe Live like a fool, You'll get what's coming to you Like an angel, came his mother She said one more second chance She pleaded with Jesus said, Make my boy a man Though he loved her, he abused her Stole her wallet, j**els and used her Dirty living got him digging for a resolution She walked with less pride Than one tiger, no stripes She cried like a baby On the first of newborn nights She never let nobody tell a girl More loving brings more pain Dirty living got her breaking Hearts and souls the same Blame it on the doctor, He never healed your pleas, yeah Blame it on your mother, She never saw your needs Looking up to heaven, I tell you Sinner, you've got to believe Ya live like a fool, You'll get what's coming to you In in the back streets of their broken town On a corner with no name These two, unworthy, two unfaithful wanderers Meet face to face They fall in love, they run away They find they're both one in the same But it backfires, with their lying and Unwillingness to change Blame it on the doctor, He never healed your pleas, yeah Blame it on your mother, She never saw your needs You looking up to heaven, I tell you Sinner, you've got to believe Live like a fool, You'll get what's coming to you
