Too Lazy To Work, Too Nervous To Steal
Br5-49

Well I met you in the middle of a bar room fight

In a cheap hotel on the Missouri side

I had you out in my car in the parking lot

Early next morning we were driving east

Headed for the big city where I felt at least

We could enjoy the weather as long as we didn't talk

But I spoiled it by speaking my swirly head

And you rolled them eyes turned to me and said

[Chorus:]

There's only one thing you got wrong with you

It ain't the whole world looking at you

Why don't you find yourself a life that's real

Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal

Well we got to the city and you got a job

Delivering the L. L. B. Catalogue

I was bored and restless, didn't know where to go

Late one evening after I got up

My guitar and I found our way into a club

I saw the queen of diamonds work that big dance floor

Well she looked at me but I couldn't go

That familiar face said, do you want to know

[Chorus:]

There's only one thing you got wrong with you

It ain't the whole world looking at you

Why don't you find yourself a life that's real

Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal

You gave me 24 hours to pack up my bags and glide

No one's got respect for a man going over the side

Well you went back to the station to make sure I was gone

That bus was on time you didn't have to wait long

I saw the bright lights of Nashville disappear behind me

Well that greyhound was cool under the summer heat

I could still see your face from my window seat

I was so happy to see your crooked smile of relief

But after miles and miles of that highway has droned

I hear the last thing you said when we were all alone

[Chorus:]

There's only one thing you got wrong with you

It ain't the whole world looking at you

Why don't you find yourself a life that's real

Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal

Too lazy to work, too nervous to steal

Yo-do-lay-dee-hee
