Wrong Thing to Do (Live)

Well, my daddy took me campin' out under the stars
Left me by the fire while he hit the bars
I broke my finger on a trailer hitch
My mamma called daddy that son of a bitch, alright.

A hundred miles to go and you draggin' your ass
I'm in a Japanese car that ain't gonna last
Forever drivin' on the wrong side of the road
Wearing dungarees that your mamma stole.

Well, my mamma loved me but my daddy don't
Tryin' to work it all out but I probably won't
There's a woman waiting at the top of the stairs
It's the wrong thing to do but I don't care.

Well, she was blond and tall, she was 23
Brought into this world to get the best of me
And she never paid back half what she stole
She wanted my money so I gave her my soul.

Well, my mamma loved me but my daddy don't
Tryin' to work it all out but I probably won't
There's a woman waiting at the top of the stairs
It's the wrong thing to do but I don't care.

Yeah

Well, my mamma loved me but my daddy don't
Tryin' to work it all out but I probably won't
There's a woman waiting at the top of the stairs
It's the wrong thing to do but I don't care.

Well, I was flying half mast on the 4th of July
In a bar in Lake City with a western tie
I's thinkin' hard about changin' my name
And headed for Miami when the daylight came.

Well, my mamma loved me but my daddy don't
Tryin' to work it all out but I probably won't
There's a woman waiting at the top of the stairs
It's the wrong thing to do but I don't care.

Well, my mamma loved me but my daddy don't
Tryin' to work it all out but I probably won't
There's a woman waiting at the top of the stairs
It's the wrong thing to do but I don't care.
