Good Ole Boy (Getting Tough) - Steve Earle[00:00:03]
I got a job but it ain't nearly enough[00:00:08]
A twenty thousand dollar pickup truck[00:00:12]
Belongs to me and the bank[00:00:15]
And some funny talking man from Iran[00:00:17]
I left the service got a G I loan[00:00:23]
I got married bought myself a home[00:00:28]
Now I hang around this one horse town[00:00:30]
And do the best that I can[00:00:33]
It's getting tough just my luck[00:00:38]
I was born in the land of plenty[00:00:45]
Now there ain't enough[00:00:48]
Getting cold I've been told[00:00:53]
Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy[00:01:00]
Been going nowhere down a one-way track[00:01:13]
I'd kill to leave it but ain't no turning back[00:01:17]
Got a wife for the kids[00:01:19]
And what will everybody say[00:01:22]
My brother's standing on a welfare line[00:01:28]
And any minute now I might get mine[00:01:32]
But meanwhile it's the I R S and the devil to pay[00:01:34]
Well getting tough just my luck[00:01:42]
I was born in the land of plenty[00:01:50]
Now there ain't enough[00:01:52]
Getting cold I've been told[00:01:57]
Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy[00:02:05]
Well I hit the beer joint every Friday night[00:02:24]
Spend a little money looking for a fight[00:02:28]
And it don't matter if I lose or win[00:02:32]
Cause Monday I'm back on the losing end again[00:02:36]
Getting tough it's just my luck[00:02:42]
I was born in the land of plenty[00:02:50]
Now there ain't enough[00:02:53]
It's getting cold I've been told[00:02:57]
Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy[00:03:05]
Getting tough just my luck[00:03:10]
I was born in the land of plenty[00:03:18]
There ain't enough[00:03:21]
We're getting cold I've been told[00:03:25]
Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy[00:03:33]
