Eric Clapton & JJ Cale Sporting Life Blues Lyrics

I'm getting tired of hangin' around,
Think I will marry and settle down
Because this ole night life,
This ole sportin' life, is killin' me

I got a letter from my home,
Most of my friends are dead an'gone
I began to worry,
I began to wonder 'bout days to come

My mother used to talk to me,
I was young and foolish, could not see
Now, I got no mother,
My sisters and brothers
Don't care for me

I'll swear I go now change my ways,
I'm getting older, every day
When I was young and foolish,
It was so easy, to run away

I'm getting tired of hangin' around,
Think I will marry and settle down
Because this ole night life,
This ole sportin' life, is killin' me
