[Verse 1] A man's got to have cold Walk along a higher road Learn to love the Holy Ghost Whatever dulls the pain On a piece of the promised land Take pride in a farmer's tan Get a little when you can And keep praying for the rain
[Verse 2] So I work my nine-to-five Tryin' to keep the dream alive Kicking it into overdrive And burnin' it at both ends It takes a lot of [Tanqueray?] And a little bit of take home pay Just to keep the wolves away 'Til the ships come sailing in
[Chorus] Blame it on my blood or on my destiny But I do my work with a willing hand I wake up when the rooster crows I hеad home when the whistlе blows And I try to save a little dough For a rainy day
[Verse 3] I could sure use some time To get away and clear my mind Yeah, I'd like to wet a line And drift into outer space Someday I'm gonna take a drive And head south down 35 Turn back when the tank runs dry Or the highway meets the sea
[Chorus] Blame it on my blood or on my destiny But I do my work with a willing hand I wake up when the rooster crows I head home when the whistle blows And I try to save a little dough I'm gonna buy a Chevrolet
[Verse 4] How the hell did we get here? You're in there and I'm out here I sit around and I drink my beer While you sip sweet apple wine Thank the Lord for both the kids They don't know the things we did To keep all of the fightin' hid And a fan to the flame
[Chorus] Blame it on our blood or on our destiny But we do our work with a willing hand Wake up when the rooster crows And head home when the whistle blows And we try to save a little dough Learn to get high on layin' low And one of these days We'll make our getawayTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
