A World of Hurt (Live) Drive-By Truckers

[Interlude]
Just remember, it's great to be alive
It is fucking great to be alive, y'all
It's "A World of Hurt"

[Intro]
Once upon a time, my advice to you would've been go out and find yourself a whore
But I guess I've grown up or somethin', 'cause I don't give that kind of advice anymore

[Chorus]
It's gonna be a world of hurt, it's gonna be a world of hurt
It's gonna be a world of hurt

[Verse 1]
And I was twenty-seven years old when I figured out that blowing my brains out wasn't the answer
So I set out to try to find a way to make this world work out for me
And my good friend Paul was eighty-three years old when he told me to lovе is to feel pain
I thought about that a lot back then and I think about that again and again

[Chorus]
It's gonna be a world of hurt, it's gonna be a world of hurt
It's gonna bе a world of hurt

[Verse 2]
Yeah, to love is to feel pain, there ain't no way around it
The very nature of love is to grieve when it's over, the secret to a happy ending is knowing when to roll the credits
You better roll 'em now before something else goes wrong
You know, it's a beautiful world if you can put aside the sadness and hang on to every ounce of beauty upon you
'Cause there's one thing for sure, ain't it? If you feel anything at all
