Makin¡¯ My Way
|
Written by Ray Scott, Phillip Moore & AJ Masters
|
|
I never counted on nepotism, it wasn't all laid out for me
|
I started off from a crawl, and worked my way up to my knees
|
I know one way of doin' things, I come from that side of life
|
Where folks don't bathe in the morning, they take their baths at night
|
At the end of a long, hard day
|
But I'm makin' my way
|
|
I like to roll with similar souls on any given Friday night
|
And I know there ain't much redemption in drinkin' beer and tellin' lies
|
But it's a damn good way for a good ol' boy to know he ain't alone
|
And forget the pile of BS he put up with all week long
|
And when the boys ask me how I am I say
|
I'm makin' my way
|
|
Chorus:
|
Yeah and I ain't ever caught the view from the window of a king
|
But the common man don't tend to miss what he ain't ever seen
|
Yeah and I ain't got it bad as some, but then again I ain't quite got it made
|
But I'm makin' my way
|
|
You know there's a whole lot of able-bodied takers out there in that welfare line
|
But you can bet ol' Uncle Sam ain't wipin' this boy's behind
|
Ain't no government cheese on my plate
|
I'm makin' my way
|
|
Repeat Chorus
|
|
Yeah I'm makin' my way, I know how my bed is made
