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
And 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 Jekyll to Mr.Hyde
He seem proud to have a 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
