Nothing on Me
I caught a .22 bullet in the thigh one night
Tryin' to break up a barroom fight
Went home cut it out with my ol' buck knife
Rode down in a blizzard on the great divide
Walked twenty miles til i caught a ride
Trooper said boy it's a wonder you're still alive
(chorus)
I've rode hard luck
I've been bruised and bucked
I've been hittin' the ground and turnin' around
And gettin' back up
And they're layin' 'em off down at kankakee
And there's boards on the windows up and down the street
And they're sayin' that it's gonna get darker before the dawn
But you can bet your ass i'll keep the lights on
Keep my babies fed and throw my dog a bone
Cuz i'm a bring it on git 'er done don't run s.o.b.
Times are tough but they ain't got nothin' on me
I got a three legged dog i call jake
Got the won't back down scars on his face
He tussled with a bear and he came in second place
He comes back home every now and then
With some brand new scars & a hefty grin
And i know i'm proud to call ol' jake my friend
(chorus)
'Cuz he's rode hard luck
He's been bruised and bucked
He's been hittin' the ground and turnin' around
And gettin' back up
And now they're layin' 'em off down at kankakee
And there's boards on the windows up and down the street
And they're sayin' that it's gonna get darker before the dawn
But you can bet your ass i'll keep the lights on
Keep my babies fed and throw my dog a bone
Cuz i'm a bring it on git 'er done don't run s.o.b.
Times are tough but they ain't got nothin' on me
Times are tough but they ain't got nothin' on me
