Lyrics

(Egan)

Woke up this morning, I got out of bed
Too late to go to work — walked my dog instead
I don't try too hard, but I get by

You don't have to tell me i've got a lot to learn
Think I gotta laugh at your overconcern
I don't try too hard, but I get by

You sit there with your fancy cigar and you think, "i got it made"
I don't want no fast car, whoa no

I'm never ready, don't have to wait
Everybody knows i'm bound to get there late
I don't try too hard, but I get by

You sit there with your fancy cigar and you think, "i got it made"
I don't want no fast car, whoa no

I'm never ready, don't have to wait
Everybody knows i'm bound to get there late
I don't try too hard, but I get by.
