It Works For Me

CAPO 2

Never owned a brand new car never worked in a white collar

Never held a woman longer than I held one single dollar

Never went out chasin' rainbows cause there can't be that much to it

Even if I found my pot of gold I'd probably piss right through it

I can't remember ever wanting for one second of my life

Even if I did it cost too much to ever pay the price

I don't dance out on the dark side ain't no secrets I can tell

So you don't have to say a prayer for me,

I just said one for myself

Chorus:

I'm livin' my li--fe under my terms

I'm callin' the shots as far as I can see

I don't owe nobody nothin' I don't answer to a soul

Might not work for you, but it works for me

I've been bent and bruised and broken

and flat busted once or twice

I brought most of it upon myself but I never compromised

My pride's too hard to swallow so I've chewed a lot of it

Mild mannered and soft hearted and hard headed as you get

I live out on the backroads where I walk my country mile

And if it's so good in the city why don't anybody smile

The traffic's always heavy and the air ain't fit to breathe

I ain't saying that it's wrong for you it just

don't make sense to me
