David Allan Coe - Time off for bad behavior lyrics

Need a little time off for bad behavior The devil in me done been asleep too long I need a little time off for bad behavior It looks like I've been too good for too long Well, I'm up and gone at the break dawn I've been workin' like a regular dog To keep my woman and the lights and the water And the phone turned on I've been sayin', "Yes sir" all day at work I've been sayin', "Yes ma'am" at home I've been storin' up the cuss words Keepin' 'em under my tongue I need a little time off for bad behavior The devil in me done been asleep too long I need a little time off for bad behavior It looks like I've been too good for too long I had this number on my mind a while I've been fightin' off the urge to call A pretty little strawberry blonde with a Southern drawl Some good old boys called from Alabama Said the fish has been a missin' me And I need to renew my friendship which I'm being I need a little time off for bad behavior The devil in me done been asleep too long I need a little time off for bad behavior It looks like I've been too good for too long Need a little time off for bad behavior The devil in me done been asleep too long I need a little time off for bad behavior It looks like I've been too good for too long I need a little time off for bad behavior The devil in me done been asleep too long I've gotta have a little time off for bad behavior It looks like I've been too good
