pistol annies - lemon drop[00:00:00]
my muffler's tied on with a guitar string[00:00:07]
i owe 7,000 dollars to a bank machine[00:00:10]
before this car is ever really mine[00:00:14]
and some fine day i'll drive her downtown[00:00:20]
get a burger, fries and a royal crown[00:00:23]
thankin' god that i'll never[00:00:26]
have to pay another dime[00:00:28]
my life is like a lemon drop[00:00:33]
i'm suckin' on the bitter to get to the sweet part[00:00:35]
i know there are better days ahead[00:00:39]
i got dirty shirts and worn out jeans[00:00:45]
i owe two dozen quarters to a washin' machine[00:00:48]
before these clothes will ever really shine[00:00:51]
but i got me a man, that just don't care[00:00:58]
if his little darlin's got underware[00:01:01]
i know someday i'm gonna be his wife[00:01:04]
my life is like a lemon drop[00:01:11]
i'm suckin' on the bitter to get to the sweet part[00:01:13]
i know there are better days ahead[00:01:17]
i got thrift store curtains in the windows of my home[00:01:23]
i'm payin' for a house that the landlord owns[00:01:26]
bought a tv on a credit card[00:01:29]
it'll take me ten years to pay if off[00:01:33]
but some fine day i'll be drinkin' a beer[00:01:36]
in a big backyard i own free and clear[00:01:39]
all i know, there's better days ahead[00:01:42]
so i play my hopes and play my dreams[00:02:00]
just like two coins in a slot machine[00:02:04]
sing "glory, hallelujah" if everything works out fine[00:02:07]
my life is like a lemon drop[00:02:14]
i'm suckin' on the bitter to get to the sweet part[00:02:16]
i know there are better days ahead[00:02:20]
lord i know there are better days ahead[00:02:26]
thank god[00:02:32]
