1986 Harley, blowing smoke and sucking oil My daddy said buy it and you're crazy boy Can't tell me nothin' It took two months to fix it up One day to lay it down I got a little hitch in my get-along now Can't tell me nothin' Talk is cheap and free advice is worth the price you paid I had to find out for myself, the hard way Can't tell me nothin' Hometown homecomming sweetheart Nobody thought I had a prayer Her momma said boy, don't you come around here Can't tell me nothin' They say be careful what you wish for I wanted to be her man Two babies and a trailer later, here I am You can't tell me nothin' Talk is cheap and free advice is worth the price you paid I had to find out for myself, the hard way You can't tell me nothin' They say that drinkin'll kill you The same thing with rollin' smokes But that's two of the three things that I like most Can't tell me nothin' I know what the good book preaches But I know how I am I sure hope somebody up there understands Can't tell me nothin' Can't tell me nothin'
