G                                      C
He embarrasses his child and wife Lord he leads a miserable life

                        G                   D7
But still he thinks the bottle is his right hand

G                                       C
Yes and he can tear down more than he's ever built before

               G                     D7               G
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man


                                        C
He lets his business lag behind for the nightlife he can find

                           G          D7
Why he does all this he'll never understand

G                                    C
In the morning when he wakes up Lord he can't wait to fill his cup

               G                     D7               G
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man


    C
For he goes from Doctor Jackel to Mr. Hide

   G                                     D7
He seems proud to have the devil for his guide

         G                          C
Still he keeps on reaching out Lord he needs a helping hand

                   G                     D7               G
But a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man


C                  G                     D7               G
Yes a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man
