laugh it off
haggard, merle
if you find yourself in lock up
write a song about a jail
and if you set your boat on fire
if you lose your only lover
go find something sweet and soft
if a joke about the police don't go over with a bang
if you tell them you're a singer
tthey don't like the way you sing
then get yourself an attorney
go out and play some golf
don't get mad when you lose at 21
just roll the dice and go o-on having fun
and get some humble marijuana
guaranteed to make you cough
if you get yourself a ticket
and the courthouse can't find records
for the ones already paid
if you should get pneumonia
with an ever-lasting cough
don't get mad when you lose at 21
just roll the dice and go o-on having fun
and get some humble marijuana
guaranteed to make you cough
well. don't get mad when you lose at 21
just roll the dice and go o-on having fun
and get yourself a good attorney
take him out and play some golf
