Girl it can't be easy living with a guy like me
My breath smells in the morning, I'm always trying to be funny
You work early most days and I just want to stay up late
I feel smarter than I really am and my singing's not that great

But if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay
And if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay

I'm not much of a handyman and I'm always stressing out
My car just kicked the bucket so you gotta drive me around
I don't make that much money but I spend it like I do
On Jim Beam and pokie machines and then the rest on you

But if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay
And if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay

Hold my hand and I think you'll understand
That I care about you and I promise to be true
When I hear you sneeze I'll remember to bless you
And if you hold my hand
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
Yeah I'll do the best I can

I can't always be there for you 'cause I'm always on the road
And every little plan we make's forever put on hold
I do stupid shit when I get drunk just to impress a crowd
I'm going mad, I'm going deaf, so you'd better speak up loud

And if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay
And if you turn the other way
I can't say that I'd blame you
But I'd beg for you to stay

Hold my hand and I think you'll understand
That I care about you and I promise to be true
When I hear you sneeze I'll remember to bless you
And if you hold my hand
Hold my hand
Hold my hand
Yeah I'll do the best I can
