(harley allen/mel besher)
Well i know you hate my drinkin'
And the way i talk sometimes
But you hate it most when i don't call at night
And it's 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 it's just that you're concerned for me
Sweetheart, i understand
You do the best you can with who i am
You go to church on sunday
While i'm still home in bed
Sleepin' off the night i had before
And sometimes you say i'm 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 it's just that you're 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
