There’s a lot of things that I want to change
But some things don’t come that easily to me
It would be a lie to say I don’t try hard every day
To make some sense out of me
And there’s a lot of things that I don’t deserve
One being trust and another one being a pretty girl’s company
But, I guess that’s just the way it is, uh-huh.
It’s better to be smart than it is lucky
There’s a lot of things that I want to do
And it’s not like those things are real heavy
Stuck in place, keep giving advice, armed to the teeth without a disguise
And you got me just as I am
And there’s a lot of things I got shakin’ down
But none of those things really matter much to me
And I know just where to go where the pretty ladies flock and the wine does flow
But that’s nowhere near this town
