Long Time Man - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Mmm, they came to take me away

They said I'd be here for the rest of my life

But I don't really care — I shot my wife

And brother, I can't even remember the reason why

Yeah, it makes a long timer man feel bad

Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad, yes it does

I ain't had no love since I don't know when

Mmm, makes a long timer man feel bad

We was down in Jacksonville

A cold winter night

My baby and I, we began to fight

I heated up, I grabbed my gun

One very, very cold winter night down south

Ah, she was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor

She looked at me and she began to smile

Her gasping words: "Baby, I love you"

Then she closed those baby blue eyes

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad

Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad

I ain't had no love, you know I can't remember when

Yeah, it makes a long timer man feel bad

Ohhh, I'm a-feelin' bad

Yeah, you know it makes a long time man feel bad

They're gonna keep me here, right here for the rest of my natural life

[?] feelin' bad

Yes, oh it makes a long time man feel bad, yes it does

It makes a long time man, a-he's a-feelin' damn bad

I ain't had those arms around me

I ain't had those lips, those lips around me

Baby, oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
