Well then, perhaps this line will help you come up with it.

Now and again I get the feeling Well if I don't win, I'm a gonna break even Rescue me, should I go wrong If I dig too deep, if I stay too long

Sorry, I didn't check in. This is Tom Petty's "You Wreck Me."

"You wreck me, baby, yes you do..."

"Always in a hurry, I never stop to worry
Don't see the time flashin' by
Honey, got no money
I'm all sixes and sevens and nines
Say now, baby, I'm the rank outsider
You can be my partner in crime."

 

"Women think I'm tasty, but they're always tryin' to waste me
And make me burn the candle right down
But baby, baby, I don't need no jewels in my crown
'Cause all you women is low down gamblers
Cheatin' like I don't know how."

Clue: If you had walked into almost any "hillbilly" bar in 1960, there's a pretty good chance you would have heard this playing on the jukebox.

I'm taking this as a "go ahead" if you want.

Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town, keep a-searchin' all around
Lookin' for my street corner girl"

"Sunday morning when we go down to church
See the menfolk standin' in line
I said they come to pray to the Lord
With my little girl, looks so fine
In the evening when the sun is sinkin' low
Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town, keep a-searchin' all around
Lookin' for my street corner girl"

Sunday morning when we go down to church

With my little girl, looks so fine

In the evening when the sun is sinkin' low
Everybody's with the one they love
I walk the town, keep a-searchin' all around
Lookin' for my street corner girl

I got a woman, stay drunk all the time
I got a little woman and she won't be true

I said she won't be true

No, yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah, no, yeah (hey, hey, what can I say?)

Sounds like a Ray Charles song, but I don't recognize it.

George

No.  If this wasn't in your wheelhouse George I thought it would be in Raf's or waysider's even WordWolf's.  Apparently I was wrong.

Unknowingly, I almost gave the title away;

It's "Hey Hey What Can I do" by ~Led Zeppelin~
