the just luckies - cody lyrics

[1st verse]
his name is cody. he works at wal-mart
he’s a ripe young man of 35
he wears his khakis, that old blue t-shirt
thanks the good lord for each day that he’s alive
his manager loves him. she’s always gushin’
’bout how he greets every customer with a smile
cody’s worked here going on ump-teen years
so, yeah, i guess you could say he’s been hear for a while

workin’ that same old job, punchin’ that same old clock:
seems enough to drive a man made inside

[2nd verse]
but cody’s got a roommate. he calls her mother
been just the two of them since papa died
they live together in all kinds of weather
in a modest little home down off route 5
sure, it’s mobile. that don’t matter, though
both of them and all the cats are happy inside
and when the rain comes, cody listens to it drum
on the roof while he sits just for a while

’cause cody’s got time to burn before they place him in that earth
and he don’t know any better than to wear a smile

[chorus]
oh, cody. your ignorance is bliss
i reckon that’s why no one ever sees you spit
and cody, i’m afraid to ask you to change
’cause i think it’s kinda beautiful how you don’t have any shame
but cody, how can we let you live like this?
there’s so much more to life than this made-in-china plastic
ah, cody. well, maybe it’s all just a game
since you’re the one still playing, that means i’m the one that’s lame

what can i do? can i live like you?
it’s the american way. yeah, yeah, yeah
