Well I ain't got nothin' but this guitar
An' I'm sittin' here singin' in one more bar
I don' give a damn if I go far
Cause I'm singin' Just for You

Well I know you think that I done you wrong
That I drowned my soul in a water bong
And I laugh at life just like Cheech and Chong
But I'm laughin' just at you

        Oh I live my life and I pay my dues
        I ain' no worse 'cause I sing the blues
        So don't sit there with your feelin's bruised
        These words are just for you.

Well we had good times for a year or three
Then y' broke my balls an' I had t' flee
And another girl showed me I was free
No more singin' just for you.

So I hit the road just like the settin' sun
An' I promised life I was gonna have some fun
Now I see your face and I know I won
Hey, you realize we're through.

        Oh I live my life and I pay my dues
        I ain' no worse 'cause I sing the blues
        So don't sit there with your feelin's bruised
        These words are just for you.

Oh girl, when you go to your lonely bed
An' y' hate your life, wishin' you was dead
An' the demons scream deep inside your head
Hey, they're screamin' at me too.

Someday you'll wake an' you'll know that I
Wasn't all that bad, maybe then you'll try
Spreadin' out your wings, even gettin' high
Then I'm gonna sing again with you.

        Oh we live our lives an' we pay our dues
        We ain' no worse 'cause we sing the blues
        So don't sit there with your feelin's bruised
        These words are just for you.

        Yeah, they're just for you.
        This song is just for you.
