I Understand

I like a stout drink of your cold coffee at 2
At breakfast-for-lunch with you
But if you got some things to do well
I understand, I understand, I understand

That draggin' out one cigarette short of that bad habit
Makes me feel like my heros
But if you think that's gross well
I understand, I understand, I understand

Maybe I'll just take it to the road where anything goes
Meet the strangest from town to town
That might freak some folks out well
I understand, I understand, I understand

I earned my degree but I would rather rake your leaves
Barely eatin' and meetin' my rent
You say man we just met you but that sounds like a bad investment well
I understand, I understand, I understand

That tonight when I'm trottin' home at three in the mornin'
Just whistlin' that early birdsong
I know I been just a little too early just a little too long
I understand, I understand, I understand

Cause I'm married and buried in my father's sins
Make amends on a little nylon string
But if that ain't your thing... welll

I understand
I understand
I understand
