A cruisin' down Main Street in an '87 Chevrolet,   A rollin' down 174 tryin' to find some more,   I wish I had a little money I'd spend it all on you,   I'd buy us a quarter bag and a 12-pack of brew      And we'll get high,   And I drink,   Well I'm tryin' not to think,   And I get stoned,   And I'm drunk,   Well I'm tryin' to change my luck,   Just gettin' by,   Well I'm a gettin' by, gettin' high yeah      A walkin' down Brown's Mountain tryin' to find my way around,   I hope I don't get stopped by the cops in this here town,   We head on to the south side in the cemetery trails,   A worn out fishin' hole where I raised a lot of hell      And I get high,   And I drink,   Well I'm tryin' not to think,   And I get stoned,   And I'm drunk,   Well I'm tryin' to change my luck,   Just gettin' by,   Well I'm a gettin' by, gettin' high yeah      There's a girl, that lives on my street,   Strawberry blonde, she tastes so sweet,   I want to tell her, all the words of my heart,   She moved away, then she tore my world apart      And I get high,   And I drink,   Well I'm tryin' not to think,   And I get stoned,   And I'm drunk,   Well I'm tryin' to change my luck,   Just gettin' by,   Well I'm a gettin' by, gettin' high yeah      Fifteen minutes south of the Fort Worth city lights,   We watch football games here on Friday nights,   I grew up slow and now I'm livin' so fast,   Runnin' out of liquor and this quarter bag won't last      'Cause I get high,   And I drink,   Well I'm tryin' not to think,   And I get stoned,   And I'm drunk,   Well I'm tryin' to change my luck,   Just gettin' by,   Well I'm a gettin' by, gettin' high      Well I get high,   And I drink,   Well I'm tryin' not to think,   And I get stoned,   And I'm drunk,   Well I'm tryin' to change my luck,   Just gettin' by,   Well I'm a gettin' by, gettin' high yeah
