Cold Cold World

I've Etried for a long time but I Athink I can't Ewin
I'd do it all better if I could do it a-Bgain
WherEever I'm going it's the Asame place I Ebeen
Ain't it Ba cold, coldE world

OutEside it was hot but Ainside I am Ecold
The eyes of the young met the eyes of the Bold
And wEhat they were thinking I'll Anever be Etold
Ain't it Ba cold, coldE world

Then an Eold lady asked me bout this Anew daylight Etime
I said it don't matter and she said I don't Bmind
Then the Ebus driver said you still Aowe me a Edime
Ain't it Ba cold, coldE world

I Ecan't get no job and I Acan't get no Erest
I started out east and I ended up Bwest
And I'm Eso glad to be here I'm Asure, I would Eguess
Ain't it Ba cold, coldE world

I Emight have to leave you, I Athink's what she Esaid
Wish I could sleep 'stead of tossing in Bbed
And I Efind myself thinking I'd be Abetter off Edead
Ain't it Ba cold, coldE world
