Letra de Gettin' Tough (Good Ol' Boy)
I got a job, but it ain't nearly enough A twenty thousand dollar pickup truck Belongs to me and the bank And some funny talkin' man from IranI left the service, got a G. I. loan I got married, bought myself a home Now I hang around this one horse town And do the best I canIt's gettin' tough, just my luck I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough Gettin' cold, I've been told Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boyBeen goin' nowhere down a one-way track I'd kill to leave it, but ain't no turnin' back Got a wife for the kids And what will everyone sayMy brother's standin' on a welfare line And any minute now I might get mine And meanwhile it's the I. R. S. and the devil to payWell, gettin' tough, just my luck I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough Gettin' cold, I've been told Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boyWell, I go out here every Friday night Spend a little money, lookin' for a fight And it don't matter if I lose or win 'Cause Monday I'm back on the losin' end againGettin' tough, it's just my luck I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough Gettin' cold, I've been told Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boyGettin' tough, it's just my luck I was born in the land of plenty, now there ain't enough Gettin' cold, I've been told Well nowadays it just don't pay to be a good ol' boy
