Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My muffler's tied on with a guitar string
I owe seven thousand dollars to a bank machine
'Fore this car is ever really mine
And some fine day, I'll drive her downtown
Get a burger, fries, and a Royal Crown
Thanking God that I'll never have to pay another dime
[Chorus]
My life is like a lemon drop
I'm sucking on the bitter to get to the sweet part
I know there are better days ahead
[Verse 2]
I got dirty shirts and worn-out jeans
I owe two dozen quarters to a washing machine
'Fore these clothes will ever really shine
But I got me a man that just don't care
If his little darlin's got underwear
I know someday I'm gonna be his wife
[Chorus]
My life is like a lemon drop
I'm sucking on the bitter to get to the sweet part
I know there are better days ahead
[Verse 3]
I got thrift-store curtains in the windows of my home
I'm paying for a house that the landlord owns
Bought a TV on a credit card
It'll take me ten years to pay it off
[Verse 4]
But some fine day, I'll be drinking a beer
In a big backyard I own, free and clear
All I know, there's better days ahead
Whistle it, Randi
[Verse 5]
So, I'll play my hopes and play my dreams
Just like two coins in a slot machine
Sing, "Glory, Hallelujah"
If everything works out fine
[Chorus]
My life is like a lemon drop
I'm sucking on the bitter to get to the sweet part
I know there are better days ahead
[Outro]
Lord, I know there are better days ahead
Thank God
