Generate meaning
1
Well I met you in the middle of a bar room fight
2
In a cheap hotel on the Missouri side
3
I had you out in my car in the parking lot
4
Early next morning we were driving east
5
Headed for the big city where I felt at least
6
We could enjoy the weather as long as we didn't talk
7
But I spoiled it by speaking my swirly head
8
And you rolled them eyes turned to me and said
9
[Chorus:]
10
There's only one thing you got wrong with you
11
It ain't the whole world looking at you
12
Why don't you find yourself a life that's real
13
Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal
14
Well we got to the city and you got a job
15
Delivering the L. L. B. Catalogue
16
I was bored and restless, didn't know where to go
17
Late one evening after I got up
18
My guitar and I found our way into a club
19
I saw the queen of diamonds work that big dance floor
20
Well she looked at me but I couldn't go
21
That familiar face said, do you want to know
22
[Chorus:]
23
There's only one thing you got wrong with you
24
It ain't the whole world looking at you
25
Why don't you find yourself a life that's real
26
Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal
27
You gave me 24 hours to pack up my bags and glide
28
No one's got respect for a man going over the side
29
Well you went back to the station to make sure I was gone
30
That bus was on time you didn't have to wait long
31
I saw the bright lights of Nashville disappear behind me
32
Well that greyhound was cool under the summer heat
33
I could still see your face from my window seat
34
I was so happy to see your crooked smile of relief
35
But after miles and miles of that highway has droned
36
I hear the last thing you said when we were all alone
37
[Chorus:]
38
There's only one thing you got wrong with you
39
It ain't the whole world looking at you
40
Why don't you find yourself a life that's real
41
Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal
42
Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal
43
