Self Made Man

Nobody helped me get to where I am
But in the end what's the use
I'm a self made man
Yeah, I'm the one that fooled around
And let the one who loved me down

But that wouldn't be true

Or I could say I was just to afraid
I could claim I had nothing to do
I'm a complicated guy
I blamed everyone but me
And let the one who loved me down
She had more of me than she could stand
To lay my heart in somebody else's hands

But now that it's too late I see

But now that it's too late I see
But now that it's too late I see

I'm a self made man
With the fact I'm lonesome and blue
Oh, I blamed everyone but me
I could blame it on the way I was raised
I blamed everyone but me
Nobody helped me get to where I am
And she didn't try to understand

I'm a self made man
Yeah, I'm the one that fooled around
I could always make one more excuse
I might as well face
She had more of me than she could stand

I'm a self made man
I'm a self made man
Nobody helped me get to where I am
Self made man, self made man
