Not Another Like You

I've met all kinds, but not another like you.

I got friends at work, and friends at church,

They don't really know me thoughI've gotten so high, I've lost my mind,

This ain't my first rodeo

I'd drink to get drunk, and fuck things up,

People left, but they wished me well

I'd yell like a rebel, and dance with the devil,

Then wonder why I'm still in Hell,

Now I'm livin' well..

I got friends with kids, Friends with wives,

and some still gettin' high

I got buddies livin' every day in prison,

and some barely gettin' by

I know some good gals, Some nights owls,

and some that drink whiskey and wine

Met a few good men, Some are my best friends,

And some were too young to die, Yeah, I've met all kinds

Been around the block, We'll say a time or two

But to this day, I must say,

I've never met another like you,

Not another like you

I know people in Heaven, and people in Hell,

and some doin' time in jailI know a few with two faces, a few in low places,

I know people sick actin' well

I know one night callers, and I know brawlers,

I know people that'll rob you blind

Anything for a dollar, Yeah I know crawlers,

I know folks that always walk the line, Yeah I've met all kinds

Been around the block, We'll say a time or two

But to this day, I must say,

I've never met another like you,

Not another like you

Not another like you, no

Not another like you!

I've been last, yeah, But I've been first,

Been the best and I've been the worst

I know love, yeah, and I know hate,

Felt blessed, and I've felt cursed

I've been right, Lord, but I've been wrong

A damn too many times

I've lost my faith, Then gained back strength,

Been bad off and I've been just fine, Yeah I've been all kinds

Been around the block, We'll say a time or two

But to this day, I must say,

I've never met another like you,

Not another like you

Not another like you, no

Not another like you

Not another like youuuuu
