Well you can call out the sheriff and the highway patrol There's a fool on the road careening out of control Hard liquor, fast women, I can't leave 'em be Lord, I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy to me I keep my engine revin' and my beer on ice My idea of heaven is a pair 'a dice Seven come eleven, set this poor boy free Lord, I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me Bright lights, Saturday night I must've had a couple, I'm a-feelin' all right My cupcake, can shimmy and shake Spends more money than anybody makes Well give me some more high octane juice You know there ain't no cure except for honky tonk blues I come up with somethin' other than a nudity???? Lord I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me Instrumental Out on the town just a foolin around Hey I got my mind on the lost and found Step up, no need to be shy You know every pretty woman's got a ticket to ride Well, my tires are flat and I'm out of gas I always promise myself I'll let the next one pass Lord, I wish that a promise didn't break so easily And I wish hard livin' didn't come so easy for me
