good old boy (getting tough) - steve earle lyrics
[verse]
i got a job but it ain’t nearly enough
a twenty thousand dollar pick-up truck
belongs to me and the bank
and some funny talking man from iran
i left the service and got a g.i. loan
i got married bought myself a home
now i hang around this one horse town
and do the best than i can
getting tough, just my luck
i was born in the land of plenty
now there ain’t enough
getting cold,i’ve been told
nowadays it just don’t pay to be a good old boy
been going nowhere down a one-way track
i’d k!ll to leave it but ain’t no turning back
got the wife and the kids and what would everybody say
my brother’s standing on a welfare line
and any minute now i might get mine
meanwhile it’s the i.r.s. and the devil to pay
i hit the beer joints every friday night
spend a little money looking for a fight
it don’t matter if i lose or win
because monday i’m back on the losing end again
