Lyrics

All my life I've had people telling me here's what you should do
Be a doctor or a lawyer just don't be no huckleberry breaking all the rules
Even my sweet mama
She tried to raise me right
Said promise me you wont be playin that guitar every night
I tried to make her happy
But I guess that's the last thing
My honky tonkin rambling songs just ain't the kind of life she had in mind
But it's mine
I was never good at anything
Lord I can't deny
Except breaking hearts and making mama cry
Well here we are leaning up against my truck in the morning light
And I realize I haven't followed one word of all that good advice
It seems like everywhere I go
Goodbye follows me
And I hate to see that little teardrop rolling down your cheek
I tried to make her happy
But I guess that's the last thing
My honky tonkin rambling songs just ain't the kind of life she had mind
But it's mine
I was never good at anything
Lord I can't deny
Except breaking hearts and making mama cry
This ol world will try to tell you
What you need to know
Sometimes you're just better off
Knowing when to go
I tried to make her happy
But I guess that's the last thing
My honky tonkin rambling songs just ain't the kind of life she had mind
But it's mine
I was never good at anything
Lord I can't deny
Except breaking hearts and making mama cry
