Makin' My Way
I never counted on nepotism, it wasn't all laid out for me I started off from a crawl, and worked my way up to my knees I know one way of doin' things, I come from that side of life Where folks don't bathe in the morning, they take their baths at night At the end of a long, hard day But I'm makin' my way I like to roll with similar souls on any given Friday night And I know there ain't much redemption in drinkin' beer and tellin' lies But it's a damn good way for a good ol' boy to know he ain't alone And forget the pile of BS he put up with all week long And when the boys ask me how I am I say I'm makin' my way Chorus: Yeah and I ain't ever caught the view from the window of a king But the common man don't tend to miss what he ain't ever seen Yeah and I ain't got it bad as some, but then again I ain't quite got it made But I'm makin' my way You know there's a whole lot of able-bodied takers out there in that welfare line But you can bet ol' Uncle Sam ain't wipin' this boy's behind Ain't no government cheese on my plate I'm makin' my way Repeat Chorus Yeah I'm makin' my way, I know how my bed is made Aus Songtexte Mania
