If I Had My Own Way, Youd Be With Me Here Today
But I Rarely Have My Own Way, I Guess Thats Why You Aint Here With Me
Today
And The Librarian Said
You Cant Buy No Respect
I Said Hey Lady, What Can You Expect
When Im Lyin On The Floor?
Youre a Lovely Lady But You Dont Wanna Be No Girl of Mine
And The Only Thing You Ever Did For Me was Help Me Waste My Time
And I Saw You At The Funeral
You Were Standing There Like A Temple
I Said Hi, How Are You, Hello
And I Pulled Up A Casket And Crawled In
Yes I Did!
<<-SLOW DOWN->>
Climbed Up A Mountain And I Looked Around
Some Kind Of Circus with all them clowns
I Said Hey Wait A Minute, Can We Slow Down A Bit?
And I Almost Got Hit By A Truck
Well It Just Goes To Show You That Were All On Our Own
Scrounging For Our Own Share Of Good Luck
Stab Your Brother In The Back
And Pick Up Your Paycheck
<<-RESUME ORIGINAL SPEED->>
Goodbye Lonely Heart Jolene, You Never Did Work Anyhow
Im Lookin for a nice girl, and I dont want no Cow
Im heading out west
Gonna Find Me The Best
Cause I Played The Game, But I Failed The Test
If I Cant Be A Lover, Then Ill Be a Pest
