[00:00.00]Better Off When I Was Hungry - Merle Haggard
[00:07.80]I read they're havin' rain
[00:11.27]California
[00:14.78]And lord I hope that you're not
[00:18.31]Gettin' wet
[00:21.95]That's the only way on earth
[00:24.67]I have
[00:25.74]For knowin' how
[00:27.58]You're doin'
[00:29.29]When you left
[00:30.38]You said you call
[00:32.10]But you ain't yet
[00:36.39]And I think
[00:37.27]I was better off
[00:39.64]When I was hungry
[00:44.23]And fightin' off the wolfs
[00:46.94]From our front door
[00:51.12]But I wrote this song
[00:52.90]And it came on strong
[00:55.10]And left you once
[00:56.64]Too often
[00:58.82]Now I think
[00:59.44]I was better off
[01:01.46]When I was hungry
[01:20.75]My guitar
[01:21.60]Brought us here to
[01:23.50]Bonmat
[01:24.08]Texas
[01:27.41]And I bought you everything
[01:30.05]Your eyes could see
[01:34.70]But the mansion
[01:36.30]Couldn't hold
[01:38.08]You could nobody's arms to warm you
[01:42.33]I guess
[01:42.93]I gave you everything
[01:45.77]But me
[01:49.16]And I think
[01:49.90]I was better off
[01:52.35]When I was hungry
[01:57.15]And fightin' off the wolfs
[01:59.60]From our front door
[02:03.94]But I wrote this song
[02:05.70]And it came on strong
[02:07.85]And left you once
[02:09.32]Too often
[02:11.70]Now I think
[02:12.64]I was better off
[02:14.44]When I was hungry
