No Knees

Loudon Wainwright III

I ain't got no knees no more
I can't walk around
Keep me off that killing floor
Lord, and above the ground
The doctor says my heart's alright
And that's alright with me
I guess the poison's in my system
And it's settled in my knees

I ain't got no knees no more
And I can hardly stand
Livin' life flat on my back
It's hard to be a man
I don't know what it's gonna take
To get back on my feet
Lord, I'm only 28 years old
And I feel damn near beat

You know, I guess it was my drinkin'
I was drinkin' day and night
Now I've stopped but it's too late
And that just don't seem right
Why stay in the city
If you can't paint the town?
What's the use of standin' up
When you keep fallin' down?

I guess it was my drinkin'
I was drinkin' day and night
Now I've stopped but it's too late
And that just don't seem right
Why stay in the city
If you can't paint the town?
What's the use of standin' up
When you keep fallin' down?

I ain't got no knees no more
I'm not worth a dime
I spent all my money, Lord
And I used up my time
I should pray to heaven
And beg for mercy, please
But Lord knows it would kill me
Just to get down on these knees
