I got your card and a bottle of gin now What's new, let me see Well there's no love left between your mother and me She gets half the house, I'm getting my share Life we built in these twenty-three years, yeah No guilt, I've opened my cage You'll like my new girl, she's about your agе, oh yeah Ohh, well you can't blame mе No, want my separate peace I'll do what's right, what's right on now for me Ohh, well you can't blame me No, want my separate peace Don't you stand there wide-eyed, don't believe Can you blame me separate peace? I will do what's right for me And son, your mother's just fine SongtexteI see her in the market from time to time She got so drunk that she wrecked the car Trying to get home from the corner bar Because this life is too short to be straight I guess a little drink it helps her escape She gave up now, disillusioned in men But in that little bottle, she found a new friend, oh yeah Ohh, well you can't blame me No, want my separate peace I'll do what's right, what's right on now for me Ohh, well you can't blame me No, want my separate peace Don't you stand there wide-eyed, don't believe Oh son, I almost forgot Your brother left his body in a parking lot Guess it happens all the time These goddamn kids cross the needle and line What happened, I can't understand He left so early, he was such a young man Oh well, now he's gone Are you coming home for the holidays son?
