I been thinking 'bout what happened back in eighty-nine When I was born my momma she almost died Seem like a hell of a way to start out for me Walk right in and cause such misery Oh but now everything's all right Even though I think about dying But, when I forget about all the things I fear I'm a pretty lucky guy Today I really realize Spending most of my time hitting parties at night Getting high climbing trees in broad daylight I ain't never broken a bone in my life Sticks and stones and low-pitched groans Buddy I can tell when you're not being nice But when I forget about all the things I fear I'm a pretty lucky guy Today I really realize Hey hey you get under my skin sometimes When you come-a on come-a on come on and pretend to be a friend of mine Hey hey whenever you roll those eyes It gets me low sometimes When I forget about all the shit you deal I'm a pretty lucky guy Today I really realize Going fifty-nine up the ninety-five Feel the heat of the city in the summertime I ain't never lifted a finger in my life Sweating hard out in Liberty Park Pay me today so that I can be free at night But when I forget about all the things I fear I'm a pretty lucky guy Lucky to be alive Hey hey you get under my skin sometimes When you come-a come-a come on and pretend to be a friend of mine Hey hey whenever you roll those eyes It gets me low sometimes But you know I know I'm a pretty lucky guy
