Howlin' at the Moon

This old rat don't wanna race no more
'Cause it ain't clear just what the race is for
The Joneses sure look fancy all the time
The banker tells me they ain't got a dime

I don't need no credit card to prove
Oh that I'm doing better than you
I own my guitars and my beat up car
And I work just enough to do the things that make me happy

I just want coffee in the morning and
Liquor in the evening and
Loving in the afternoon
So if you see me on the weekend
Don't ask me if I'm workin'
'Cause by Friday night I'm howlin' at the moon

We don't need no VIP or cover charge
I'd rather belly up to the Kingfish Bar
Or put me on a smoky sticky dim lit stage
Right at home in a chicken wire cage

I don't need to sing to a stadium crowd
To know I make my grandma proud
I write my own songs and when you sing along
Well I'm hoping that the words are good enough to make you happy

I just want coffee in the morning and
Liquor in the evening and
Loving in the afternoon
So if you see me on the weekend
Don't ask me if I'm workin'
'Cause by Friday night I'm howlin' at the moon

I just want coffee in the morning and
Liquor in the evening and
Loving in the afternoon
So if you see me on the weekend
Don't ask me if I'm workin'
'Cause by Friday night I'm howlin' at the moon
Yeah by Friday night I'm howlin' at the moon
Whoa by Friday night I'm howlin' at the moon
