Well a junkie lives one day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
A junkie lives one day at a time
So why, oh why can’t I
And a drunkard lives one drink at a time
One drink at a time
One wink at a time
A drunkard lives one day at a time
So why, oh why can’t I
Why oh why, my oh my
Oh why, oh my oh why can’t I
There’s twelve silver stars and a big black moon
A big black moon, there’s a big black moon
There’s twelve silver stars and a big black moon
Just sailing through the lonesome sky
They all come alive one night at a time
One night at a time, one night at a time
The stars come alive one day at a time
So why oh why can’t I
Why oh why, my oh my
Oh why, oh my oh why can’t I
Well a junkie lives one day at a time
One day at a time
One day at a time
A junkie lives one day at a time
So why, oh why can’t I
Why oh why, my oh my
Oh why, oh my oh why can’t I
