What A Way To Go Lyrics

I met a man out on a bridge pier

He said he's gonna jump to save his soul

I said what's the world done to make you mad man

He said sit down son now here's the dope

I can't find work 'cause I'm a blind man

I can't see but sometimes I can see the light

Now is my life a labor of love or is my life a love of labor

I still got a hollow feeling in my life



What a way to go

What a way to go

What a way to go

What a way to go



I met this girl her name escapes me

Said son I'd love you to be my man

She wrote her name out on a dollar

I spent that dollar on a shot of Jim

Spent it on a shot of Jim

I talked him down and then I walked off

I turned around and he was gone himself

A mile down the road it came upon me

It was me I talked off that ledge

It was me I talked off that ledge

It was me I talked off that ledge



What a way to go

What a way to go

What a way to go
