lirik lagu steve earle – good ol’ boy (getting tough)
i got a job but it ain’t nearly enough
a twenty thousand dollar pickup truck
belongs to me and the bank
and some funny talkin’ man from iran
i left the service, got a g.i. loan
i got married, bought myself a home
now i hang around this one horse town
and do the best that i can
it’s getting tough, just my luck
i was born in the land of plenty
now there ain’t enough
getting cold, i’ve been told
well, nowadays it just don’t pay
to be a good ol’ boy
been goin’ nowhere down a one way track
i’d kill to leave it but ain’t no turnin’ back
got the wife and the kids
and what would everybody say?
my brother’s standin’ on a welfare line
an’ any minute now, i might get mine
meanwhile, it’s the i.r.s.
an’ the devil to pay
getting tough, just my luck
i was born in the land of plenty
now there ain’t enough
getting cold, i’ve been told
well, nowadays it just don’t pay
to be a good ol’ boy
well, i hit the beer joint every friday night
spend a little money, lookin’ for a fight
an’ it don’t matter if i lose or win
’cause monday i’m back on the losin’ end again
getting tough, it’s just my luck
i was born in the land of plenty
now there ain’t enough
it’s getting cold, i’ve been told
well, nowadays it just don’t pay
to be a good ol’ boy
getting tough, just my luck
i was born in the land of plenty
now there ain’t enough
well, getting cold, i’ve been told
well, nowadays it just don’t pay
to be a good ol’ boy
