| You know, I been thinkin' about something lately, baby
|
| Come sit down here, I got something to tell you
|
| You know, these past few days have been magical
|
| You made me feel like a hundred bucks last night
|
| And the breakfast you cooked up this morning tasted like it was made from the
|
| big restaurant in the sky
|
| Nonetheless, I noticed lately that you been thinkin' about settling down
|
| And uh, gettin' us a little cabin in the woods together
|
| Maybe couple chickens, couple dogs, couple kids
|
| And you know, and I
|
| You know, I really think that sounds lovely, baby, but uh
|
| I got something real important to tell ya
|
| So I hope you’re sitting down
|
| Here it comes, baby
|
| Well, I don’t need no woman tellin' me
|
| When to go bed and when to brush my teeth
|
| Girl, if you ain’t my mama, please don’t try to be
|
| Yeah, you can’t change this old hound dog
|
| No, you can’t fix me, what, what?
|
| I’ma keep a-hootin' and a-hollerin'
|
| And drinkin' liquor and gettin' high
|
| I’m never gonna be the man you want me to be
|
| I’m a rebel till I die
|

| 'Cause I been living on the outskirts of society my whole life
|
| And I ain’t never gonna be like all the stupid things that you like
|
| Never gonna like them, ma’am

|
| And by the time the morning comes, honey
