lyrics

Lord knows I'm liable to have a good time
and y'all know I'll do what I can to make sure you're all feeling fine
times are hard you got a lot on your mind
pinch all the pennies you like but don't pinch mine

Walkin' round feeling down on my luck
I got no pink carnation got no pickup truck
just my worn out shoes and two college degrees
and now I'm third in line to pump 'pane down in New Orleans
lookin' at my empty fridge a knock at the door
we like your unpaid work so much we'd like to give you some more
I said...

Lord knows I'm liable to have a good time
and y'all know I'll do what I can to make sure you're all feeling fine
times are hard you got a lot on your mind
pinch all the pennies you like but don't pinch mine

You got a lot of gall lecturing me
when you never paid no rent and got your schoolin' for free
you got in early while I came late
and now you're killin' time buyin' up all the real estate
you been at the trough and now you've had your fill
so you're workin' on retiring sending me the bill
I said...

Lord knows I'm liable to have a good time
and y'all know I'll do what I can to make sure you're all feeling fine
times are hard you got a lot on your mind
pinch all the pennies you like but don't pinch mine
