Yeah, they came to take me away
Said I'd be sitting here for the rest of my life
But I don't really care, I shot my wife
And brother, I can't even remember the reason why

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Well I ain't had no love since I don't know when
It sure makes a long time man feel bad

We was down in Jacksonville
A cold winter night
My baby and I, we began to fight
I heated up, and I grabbed my gun
I get so cold on those nights down south
She was laying in a pool right there on the kitchen floor
She looked up at me and began to smile
Her gasping words "Baby, I love you"
Then she closed those baby blue eyes

Oh, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Well I ain't had no love since I don't know when
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, it makes a long time man feel bad
Yeah, yeah it makes him feel bad

Sometimes I hear you call my name
In the dead of the night, yeah
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
It sure makes a long time man feel bad
I ain't had those arms around me
I ain't had those lips, those lips, around me

It sure makes a long time man feel bad, so bad
It sure makes a long time man feel bad, so bad
It sure makes a long time man feel bad, yeah so bad
