Now I'm nearly twenty
If there's a God in Heaven
My life is down the drain, down the drain
Haven't got the courage
I was only fourteen
No church and no religion
I'm only human trash
No family, no cash
Now I'm nearly twenty
No roots, no home, no country
Now I'm nearly twenty
Down the drain, down the drain
No hope, no faith, no luck
Sick in heart and brain
Stole from supermarkets
No self-respect, no honor
Down the drain, down the drain
Well, He doesn't give me bucks
Sick in heart and brain
With this girl of mine
Down the drain, down the drain
Haven't got the courage
Haven't got the courage
Took to petty crime
On a loading ramp
My life is down the drain, down the drain
Down the drain, down the drain
Some folks say they conceived me
My life is down the drain, down the drain
Sick in heart and brain
