Well you can call up the sheriff and the highway patrol
|
'Cause there's a fool on the road careening out of control
|
Hard liquor, fast women, I just can't let 'em be.
|
Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me.
|
|
Well I keep my motor runnin', got my beer on ice.
|
Hey my idea of heaven is a pair o' dice.
|
Seven come eleven, set this poor boy free.
|
Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me.
|
|
|
Bright lights, Saturday night
|
Well I must've had a couple I'm a feelin' alright.
|
My cupcake can shimmy and shake
|
And spend more money than anybody makes.
|
|
|
Well gimme some more high octane juice
|
You know there ain't no cure for these ol' honky tonk blues
|
If they come up with something I'll build up an immunity.
|
Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me.
|
|
|
Out on the town just a foolin' around
|
Hey I got my mind on the lost and found.
|
Step up, no need to be shy
|
You know every pretty woman's got a ticket to ride.
|
|
|
Well my tire's are flat and now I'm outta gas
|
I always promised myself I'd let the next one pass.
|
Lord I wish that a promise didn't break so easily.
|
And I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me.
|
hey I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me.
