nothin' to lose

gasoline prices are higher than ever

they line up to buy 'cause they hate going slow

someday i might learn to ride a bicycle

but i ain't got no place to go

i pick up cigarette butts down at kroger

they pay ten dollars to get rid of me

some folks spend all of their money on nothing

hell i get my nothin' for free

i might buy me a bottle of five dollar booze

give thanks for this shirt and this old pair of shoes

build me a raft out of old innertubes

shove off and go for a cruise

hell i ain't got nothin' to lose

i used to spend all my time making money

much in the fashion of my dear old dad

he could have taught me to ride a bicycle

now i bet he wishes he had

i don't have on thing to take care of tonight

and i was just thinking i might

i might buy me a bottle of five dollar booze

give thanks for this shirt and this old pair of shoes

build me a raft out of old innertubes

shove off and go for a cruise

hell i ain't got nothin' to lose

i might just kick back and take me a snooze

hell

i ain't got nothin to lose
