You know this place can get tough around here You ain't got far to go This old planet can get pretty tough around here on a guy You ain't got that far left to go What used to look like a wide open highway Turns into a block long dead end road Man, I sure live the good life I didn't let things get me down I know I hit the good life I didn't let much bring me down When that highway turned into a dirt road Man, that whole thing just turned around Man, I learned to love the high life And never did much about what I was told Made my own situation Man, I sure like livin' that good life Never got along with doin' what I was told But now I listen real hard Since my long highway turned to a dirt road
