I do my best to play by the rules
|
I've bend a couple even break a few
|
Don't get me wrong, i wanna do right
|
I just can't seem to live in a virtuous light
|
|
Headaches by the bottle, heartaches by the number
|
Six of one, half dozen of the other
|
|
I fell in love with a preachers daughter
|
They washed my soul in the holy water
|
I gave her my heart and bought her a house
|
The devil broke in and broke me out
|
|
Now i owe the bank some money and i lost another lover
|
Six of one, half dozen of the other
|
|
No matter how you add it up it's always the same
|
I give it my best and all i gets the blame
|
I'm living and loving and barely breaking even
|
Can't be me must be the company i'm keeping
|
|
I went on out and made some brand new friends
|
Started my life all over again
|
Now some of them are saints and some of them are sinners
|
I'mstill searching for a way to be a winner
|
|
I roll box cars one way or another
|
Six of one, half dozen of the other
|
