badlees – spending my inheritance lyrics
i was just a young boy, barely 17
a regular poster child for the american dream
i spent some time in college, tried to learn that system well
left a problem drinker and cynical as h-ll
chorus
they say there’s two kinds of people
those who have and those who don’t
some of us will benefit
and there’s some of us that won’t
some people spend a lifetime
trying to get over that fence
but i’m just on the corner
spending my inheritance
i guess old father time’s put on one h-ll of a show
’cause the older that i get it seems the less i know
i found the road to riches was just a private drive
owned by politicians waving from inside
chorus
there’s nothing wrong with me still i have to wonder why
another day, another family tree lifts it’s branches to the sky
dined on good intentions, nearly starved to death
i gave the world my last two cents and now i live on what is left
there’s never any medals, there isn’t much reward
you gotta find your peace of mind in what you can afford
chorus
well i’m back where i started, spending my inheritance
