He embarrasses his child and wife Lord he leads a miserable life
But still he thinks the bottle is his right hand
Yes and he can tear down more than he's ever built before
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man

He lets his business lag behind for the nightlife he can find
Why he does all this he'll never understand
In the morning when he wakes up Lord he can't wait to fill his cup
A man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man

For he goes from Doctor Jackel to Mr. Hide
He seems proud to have the devil for his guide
Still he keeps on reaching out Lord he needs a helping hand
But a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man
Yes a man can be a drunk sometimes but a drunk can't be a man
