Patterson Hood - Foolish Young Bastard lyrics

Foolish young ba*tard You shouldn't do things half-a**ed Going out the world backwards Foolish young ba*tard You're such a big tall man You shouldn't sell yourself short You got the really big deals nipping hard at your heels Why you want to go and blow it So suave and wily you can cut em while your smiling Its those times when you forget that gets you in a mess A man can fail before he knows it Foolish young ba*tard Too damned smart to even know it Take that turn a little faster You foolish young ba*tard Such a foolish young ba*tard Got it all so figured out Can you back it up in plaster? Foolish young ba*tard You'll either prove them all wrong or be a disaster Foolish young ba*tard
