Love you made me pay an awful price,
I tried to gamble with you, but you were using crooked dice.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.

Money you made me some very good friends.
Just like you make them, you're gonna break them in the end.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.

I've had my share of love, life and money.
I lost it all three ways and I'm here to tell ya it sure ain't funny.
Me and my money parted, so did my love and I,
Life don't mean a thing, and I wish that I could die.

In life you make a whole lotta fools,
'Cause you're always teaching something that they never teach in schools.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.

Love, you made me pay an awful price,
I tried to gamble with you, but you were using crooked dice.
Somebody's gotta suffer, somebody's gotta feel some pain.
If it's gonna rain down misery, why it's all gotta fall on me.
