Common Sense Ain't Common

Mama said don't let your tank get below half in the winter
And don't you worry child, everyone's a sinner
I put a benjamin in the glovebox for emergencies only
And if you're in a rut, don't give up, just go on and phone me

And nothing's easy, nothing's free
I guess that's how it's supposed to be
Been learning the hard way since I was damn near 3
Still moving on, trippin over my own feet
I'm hanging on by the skin of my teeth
Cause common sense ain't common 'less you were raised like me

And Daddy said you only need a couple good friends
And if they don't work out, you've got yourself in the end
Don't half ass anything in this life
Be the worst or the best til the end of your time

And nothing's easy, nothing's free
I guess that's how it's supposed to be
Been learning the hard way since I was damn near 3
Still moving on, trippin over my own feet
I'm hanging on by the skin of my teeth
Cause common sense ain't common 'less you were raised like me

And I'm still reckless, drivin 90 down the highway
Sometimes I forget I don't always get it my way
Rules ain't made to follow for this old soul
And I think you should know

That nothing's easy, nothing's free
That's the way it'll always be
Been learning the hard way since I was damn near 3
Still moving on, trippin over my own feet
I'm hanging on by the skin of my teeth
Cause common sense ain't common 'less you were raised like me
