W E ell i grew up lean and hungry
I worked hard for my money
Said i A 'm gonna live my l B ife the way i ple E ase
I spent some time on the road of life
Saw an angel once and the devil twice
I c A ame across some th B ings that i don't n E eed
Chorus: (Willie & Waylon)
E Like a c A old hearted wom E en,wh A iskey in my wat E er
C#m And only one w B ay out of a motel r E oom
P A ayments on the Cad E illac,and t A oo many questi E ons
C#m And old guitars that j B ust won't stay in t E une
Verse 2: (Waylon)
Y E ou know there's good and bad breaks
You learn from your mistakes
It's A all in how you h B andle them do's and do E n'ts
A hillbilly boy is hard to convice
Wild and stubborn and not much sense
But i' A ve got enough to kn B ow what i don't w E ant
Chorus.
C#m And old guitars that j B ust won't stay in t E une
