Coming Up Around the Bend Lyrics

My mother told me to stay away from boys and liquor and dancing with the devil in the rain.
She never warned me 'bout all them pretty women and their pink champagne.
Now, I got a bottle in my pocket and a lady on my hip and a noose around my neck...
But I've got a sunny disposition for someone whose life's become such a wreck.
My number's coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend I know it.
My number's coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again I know it!
My daddy told me to always keep my head up and never let the people see me sweat.
He never warned me that all they really want is anything that they can get.
So I gave them all my inhibitions and my sense of motivation and what was left of my self worth...
They gave me twenty lousy dollars and a visitors pass to this planet Earth.
My number's coming up around the bend, I...

I'm coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend I know it.
My number's coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again I know it!
Don't, don't lose hope. Don't give up, don't give in.
Don't, don't you dare. You can take another hit, you can win.
Don't, don't lose hope. Don't give up, don't give in.
Don't, don't you dare. You can take another hit, you can win.
My number's coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend I know it.
My number's coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again I know it!
My number's coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend, I...
I'm coming up around the bend I know it.
My number's coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again, I...
I'm coming up around again I know it!
