He wears his hat o'er his eyes And he's trying to keep it on Says he's sick of living his life And he's tired of being alone No one's job but mine That ain't no one's job but mine That ain't no one's job but mine That ain't no one's job but mine Got a new sleeping bag Got no place to sleep it at Left my dog on the ranch But I'm trying to get her back My job's simple I just got to see The stars for what they are And they don't grant wishes And they don't guide me But they try They try Now I'm gonna try To straighten up your life Straighten up your life Saw the sign of the times Out on the freeway It said "hey man, there goes the hood" I said "that's fine, I was done trying to be good" The next time I come by I want to see this sky split Want to know what's happening Trade this hard heart for tears Take a look in the mirror Next time I'll try Next time I'll try
