Steven Nettleton - The Man and the Checkbook lyrics

(Verse) I f**ed up today I didn't pay my damn debt I pull back my shades And my girl asks me all upset I don't I just roll on And think to myself As I put My clothes on I really needed the cash But i swear That I can't make the phone call I knew i wouldn't live today I needed a damn plan Then she asks me one more time And I gotta be a damn man I told my baby they're gonna k** me They're going to steal me right away She screams I skip down my way Then I close the door For another delay (Chorus) I k**ed a man today In one quick pull He just pa**ed away I dont regret what I did I just marked the date So this time next year I can celebrate x2 (Verse) My girl's going to have a baby And this whole 'damned' sh** gonna drive me crazy I just f**ed up I borrowed money because I was love struck (trying to take care of sh**) Now they coming for me They coming for me Yeah the coming for me I go out the window And leave my girl right before me Now I'm walking down the alley And there ain't not one word I hear footsteps behind me The click of a gun And I shoot first I told myself they're going to k** me Then I thought, I don't care I just look at the gun And I give it a long stare (Chorus) I k**ed a man today In one quick pull He just pa**ed away I dont regret what I did I just marked the date So this time next year I can celebrate x2
