Toby Keith

It Works For Me
(Toby Keith, Scott Emerick) Never owned a brand new car Never worked in a white collar Never held a woman longer Than I held one single dollar I never went out chasin' rainbows 'Cause there can't be that much to it Even if I found my pot of gold I know I'd 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 have to tell So you don't have to say a prayer for me I just said one for myself Chorus: I'm livin' my life Under my terms I'm callin' the shots As far as I can see I don't owe nobody nothin' SongtexteI 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 Chorus Aus Songtexte Mania
