I always live by the, golden rule Whatever happens, ha, don't blow your cool! You gotta have nerves of steel And never show folks how you, honestly feel I lived all my life this way, hah For example, take yesterday I breeze home happy bringin' her my pay Her note read, so long savvy, I haven't gone away! An' I threw myself down across our empty bed An' this is what I said Oh sh** Oh Oh Oh What? Oh what are you gonna do with me? Oh wow uh But I was cool! So I "one for the roaded" at a all night bar I wound up so loaded, I tore up my car
The judge threw the book at me, An' when I read, the sentence there, I said Ow! Please ow ow, please I got to know, I got to know What? what went wrong? I don't underst' I oh a, But I was cool! So I said she's the only one, that I have to pay And I found her an' pulled my gun, an' fired point blank The shot whistled right past that woman's head An' I k**ed my hound dog, dead! Ow, ruff ruff, r' r' r' r' r' r' As they carried me away I was overheard to say, "Be cool, be cool, stay cool, be cool!"
