I’ve Been Seeing Stars (Ain’t Seen The Light) – Alabama 3

I’ve been seeing stars
But I ain’t seen the light
I could’ve been a contender

The road is rough and rocky
39 steps to heaven
Nobody ever asked me
If I was ready for redemption
Death by cop
Death by whisky
Death by cigarette
Death by woman
I don’t give a damn about a second coming

I’ve been seeing stars
But I ain’t seen the light

Could’ve been a philosopher
I took a tablet, smoked a stone
Could’ve been a minister
Couldn’t leave Mrs Jones alone
Could’ve been something sinister
Giving people the evil eye
Could’ve been a contender
I couldn’t find no fight

I’ve been seeing stars
But I ain’t seen the light
I’ve been seeing stars
But I ain’t seen the light

You ain’t nothing but a low life pretender
And you never ever was a contender
Coz the fire inside you left you
It’s left you
