Growing up in the hills Of middle Tennessee I'd quit my job I could find one But that might just suit me 'Cause I never wanted money And I never cared for crime That's why most of us simple folk Are simply killing time But when it comes to killing time I'm a murderer, you see I strangle out the second hand With hours of whiskey So, dukes up, my brothers Yeah, I'm tired of feeling down I'd put my faith in a higher place But no one seems around And the bricks of my house Will soon be on the ground I'll hurl them through your pearly gates And have another round Then I moved up north To this Mass of sandy shores With liberals and Democrats That have forgotten what they're for Well they only feed the system And forget about the poor That's why I lived in Boston But I was sleeping on the floor But when it comes to killing time I'm a murderer, you see I strangle out the second hand With hours of whiskey So, dukes up, my brothers Yeah, I'm tired of feeling down I'd put my faith in a higher place But no one seems around And the bricks of my house Will soon be on the ground I'll hurl them through your pearly gates And have another round Now I've moved back south to conservatives in trouble Their republican leaders Leave them sifting through the rubble Well they promise lower taxes But you'll end up paying double So I'm killing time by making rhymes In another goddamn bubble But when it comes to killing time I'm a murderer, you see I strangle out the second hand With hours of whiskey So, dukes up, my brothers Yeah, I'm tired of feeling down I'd put my faith in a higher place But no one seems around And the bricks of my house Will soon be on the ground I'll hurl them through your pearly gates And have another round
