The Allman Brothers Band – Wasted Words Lyrics 4 years ago
Clearly, he’s had it with his babe’s (possibly Cher) bitching. Anything she says is wasted words because he’s not listening. He’s bitter af.
“Well, I ain't no saint and you sure as hell ain't no savior
Every other Christmas I would practice good behavior
That was then, this is now, don't ask me to be mister clean
Baby, I don't know how”. This is a reference to his drug/alcohol use and trying to stay clean…on and off sobriety…finally giving in to the addiction over her previous pleas for him to stop, trying to be his “savior”.
It may very well be Cher because their whole relationship was widely covered by tabloids and the media. He makes reference to this…
“Our wasted words will never be heard, go on home baby and watch it on TV
Weekday soap-box specialty, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout now
By the way, this song's for you, sincerely, me.”
