I roll out every morning, I drink my coffee on the run
Working for the man just the way my daddy done
But the money I'm maken ain't buyin' much bacon
but when payday comes along,
sometimes I gotta do somethin' even if its wrong
The telephone keeps ringin' and it gits under my skin
they all call to ask me when I'll send the money in.
But AT&T does a favor for me and takes a message at
the tone, sometimes I gotta do somethin'
even if it's wrong
Chorus:
Seems the road is getting rougher, as I roll
on up the hill. High times are passin' by me
just like I was standin' still
But I'm almost to the top & I'm going 'til I drop
Some fall by the way side, but I've gone to far to stop
The woman of my dreams, she was like a livin' dog
I sent her far away when she set me for a fall
She was a digger and the bill got bigger
And I was up against the wall..
Sometimes you gotta do somethin' even if it's wrong
Now I hear those wolves a-howlin' I can't get no sleep at all
The Good Lord knows I'm tired of robbin' Peter to pay Paul
>From the grind stone to the grave stone is it really worth it all
Sometimes I gotta do somethin' even if it's wrong |
