Letra
Believe it or not I treat it like a job
I got the tools I use I put my boots on
A lot of pride in a man who wears a hard hat
Believe it or not I treat it just like that
Everybody writes songs every day of their lives
But most don't know what to do with the lines
Treat em like strange things in a lost and found
The difference with me is I write mine down
The front side of this old guitar
Seen more backsides on stools in bars
Trying to write something
Make em turn around
Try and make em laugh
Try and be profound
And all the skills that I've aquired
Qualify me for changing tires
Changing strings
And watching the sun come up
As for the last
I think I've had enough
But when it comes to this job
The most important thing I've learned
Is how to get drunk
And not forget the words
People wanna know
About the girls and the road
And all the crazy things
That happen after the show
Somewhere, somehow this myth got around
That all we ever do is party with the crowd
But if you could just picture for a second for me
A movie theatre full of empty seats
And the credits roll and one guy's picking up trash
A lot of the time it looks a lot like that
It aint romantic it's pretty damn rough
And it's hardest on the ones you love
Reciting poetry to a bunch of drunks
We sit up there and we tell jokes
Tell stories about the songs we wrote
And between we take shots, smokes and beers
Keep in mind this goes on for years
You only get good by going too far
Keep track of where in the song you are
And try to ride the line as close as you can
What I'm trying to make you understand is
That the front side of this old guitar
Seen more backsides on stools in bars
Trying to write something
Make em turn around
Try and make em laugh
Try and be profound
And all the skills that I've acquired
Qualify me for changing tires
Changing strings
And watching the sun come up
As for the last
I think I've had enough
But when it comes to this job
The most important thing I've learned
Is how to get drunk
And not forget the words
Is how to get drunk
