I ride half a Harley and I'm half a man
My life is in the garbage can
And I really hate to be so down
But I've been here so long if looks like up to me
Mister raise another cup to me
And if you pa** me going up I'll be hangin' around
'Cause I'm doin' time on planet earth
Ever wonder why?
Doin' time, since my birth
Reachin' for the sky
About the only thing that could help me now
Is Hank Sr. on the stereo
So please do me right and put some on
I need to hear the lonesome whistle blow
Pole the pirog on the bayou
Anything just to get me gone
'Cause I'm doin' time on planet earth
Ever wonder why?
Doin' time, since my birth
Reachin' for the sky
You can lead a horse to water
But that won't make him drink
You can tell a man the facts of life
But that won't make him think
You can live life to the fullest
Or die before your prime
But there's one thing I'm sure you know
We're all just doin' time
'Cause I'm doin' time on planet earth
Ever wonder why?
Doin' time, since my birth
Reachin' for the sky
