[Verse 1]
Well I got years of livin'
By and how I choose
Ain't never been a gambler
'Cause I's always bound to lose
My buddies, they drink liquor
Sometimes I'll go along
I got a girl who don't like that at all

[Chorus]
Well, you know I wouldn't fight
If these guys wouldn't shove me
Now I can't go home
Because my baby, she don't love me
There ain't no use in tryin' anymore

[Verse 2]
Well, last week or so
I woke up in a cell
Don't know how I got there
But my head, it hurt like hell
The guard already knew my name
Before I came inside
I got a girl who don't like that at all

[Chorus]
Well, you know I wouldn't fight
If these guys wouldn't shove me
Now I can't go home
Because my baby, she don't love me
There ain't no use in tryin' anymore
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Well, I guess some guy downtown
Come pushin' me around
So I let one loose and left that fella
Lyin' on the ground
The police were waitin' for me
But I came runnin' out
I got a girl who don't like that at all

[Chorus]
Well, you know I wouldn't fight
If these guys wouldn't shove me
Now I can't go home
Because my baby, she don't love me
There ain't no use in tryin' anymore
Well, you know I wouldn't fight
If these guys wouldn't shove me
Now I can't go home
Because my baby, she don't love me
There ain't no use in tryin' anymore
No, there ain't no use in tryin' anymore
There ain't no use in tryin' anymore
