Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
""Spoken: Now I ain't proud of my bad reputation, and it's a shame the way my past has been, course you're gonna say I caused the situation, and this awful fix that I'm in. Well I stumbled into some bad romances and lost my balance no doubt. I'm sort of a victim of circumstances..."" But I've got it all figured out I like to wake up in the morning And when the truth was told The'd say Tex never donated nothing But then ole Tax never stole I just like to start even, start even that's all I like to wake up in the morning And sy there's two things I never done I ain't never fought with nobody But then I ain't never run I just like to start even, start even that's all I'd like to wake up in the morning Without a sweetheart or a wife Or without some little gal hanging around Saying Tex done ruined her life Wish I'd never made nobody happy, made nobody sad Got nobody tickled or made nobody mad Then I could just start even, start even that's all And then that's all Now I never dabbled in high society Don't reckon I would if I could I'm a little too good for the bad folks And a-way too bad for the good If I don't soon lose my misery I'm gonna tell you one and all One of these mornings I ain't gonna wake up at all Then I could just start even, start even that's all That's all, that's all
