Well I know you hate my drinkin
And the way I talk sometimes
But you hate it most when I dont call at night
And its just because you love me
And you worry bout your man
You do the best you can with who I am
Burnin both ends of a candle
Can leave one in the dark
And I know what I put you through
Is hard upon your heart
And its just that youre concerned for me
Sweetheart, I understand
You do the best you can with who I am
You go to church on sunday
While Im still home in bed
Sleepin off the night I had before
And sometimes you say Im perfect
And sometimes not worth a damn
You do the best you can with who I am
Burnin both ends of a candle
Can leave one in the dark
And I know what I put you through
Is hard upon your heart
And its just that youre concerned for me
Sweetheart, I understand
You do the best you can with who I am
You do the best you can with who I am
