If You Have to Know

Got my head on my shoulders, my feet on the ground To keep from breakin' out of this blues side of town If you have to know... do you have to know I've been too far up, too far down, if you have to know They went and locked me up... for 47 days Wouldn't let me out and I wouldn't change my ways If you have to know... do you want to know I take what I get and I play where I stay... if you have to know I'm a runaway engine on a midnight line No destination and no track of time Ain't worried about yours, don't worry about mine If you have to know... since you have to know Well too many bars and too many nights Too many lefts and not enough rights If you have to know... do you have to know I'm the last one to leave and the first one to fight If you have to know Got a whole lot of women... a whole lot of beer Half outta whiskey and flat out of (Chester)fields If you have to know... do you have to know I got some kinda deal but it's all up to you If you have to know
