Doing It Right
I was told that every good guy knows they need to stand their ground
So I stood up to the drunk who tried to put my buddy down
I told him that he ought to show respect and that he's out of line
Now I've a broken jaw and I got two black eyes
But Im doing it right
I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
Well you know I love my lady and I would not let her down
I promised not to lie and I have never slept around
Last week she had a business trip, today her PT he dropped by
I'm hoping she'll come home tonight
Cos I'm doing it right.
I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
Can't bring me down, can't turn me around
I've always known I can't control the actions of another soul
Good fortune it will come and go, though I guess some would be nice
I'm doing it right.
I'm doing it right
Now I've always been a grafter and it's hard to understand
How the riches always seem to fall into someone else's hands
But I'll just pay my taxes, clean my windows, make the bed
And I'll ignore the fucking rage that's pounding in my fucking head
I'm doing it right. I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
So I stood up to the drunk who tried to put my buddy down
I told him that he ought to show respect and that he's out of line
Now I've a broken jaw and I got two black eyes
But Im doing it right
I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
Well you know I love my lady and I would not let her down
I promised not to lie and I have never slept around
Last week she had a business trip, today her PT he dropped by
I'm hoping she'll come home tonight
Cos I'm doing it right.
I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
Can't bring me down, can't turn me around
I've always known I can't control the actions of another soul
Good fortune it will come and go, though I guess some would be nice
I'm doing it right.
I'm doing it right
Now I've always been a grafter and it's hard to understand
How the riches always seem to fall into someone else's hands
But I'll just pay my taxes, clean my windows, make the bed
And I'll ignore the fucking rage that's pounding in my fucking head
I'm doing it right. I'm doing it right
I'm playing by the book and I am fighting the good fight
I'm going it right, I'm doing it right
When the light goes off and the maker comes I know I'll be alright
