Lyrics
PLAYBOYS LAMENT
I know you?ve had some problems and I?ve had a few
But I?ve got this friend has a case of the blues
When he told me his story, looked like there
Was no way he could escape
He said his wife, his girlfriend and his mortgage
Were all three months late
Refrain:
I told him that?s the price you pay for a life of sin
You had to know that something was gonna do you in
You ran around doing anything you pleased
Now the worm has turned and brought you to your knees
When I heard his story I thought I?d cry
And he was ready to lay down and die
It looked like he?d been touched by the fickle
Finger of fate
Because his wife, his girlfriend and his mortgage
Were all three months late.
Refrain:
Now you?ve heard my story, it?s sad but it?s true
I really don?t expect any sympathy from you
But you must admit a man?s got a lot
On his plate
When his wife his girlfriend and his mortgage
All are three months late
Refrain:
