Tough Guy Blues
VERSE 1
N.C.
I came hungry
Came to make me some money
Got my blues from the karate kid
And my roots from Bugs Bunny
x2
N.C.
Well I burned out and got older
My spirit smoldered
Stuffed a sock in my pants
And tossed a chip on my shoulder
x2
N.C.
Well I gave up thinking
And I took up drinking
To emanicipate my mind like
Abraham Lincoln
x2
N..
Then I robbed and I ripped
Wagging my lips
Singing bibbidibobbidibibbidibib
x2
CHORUS 1
I got drunk and I smoked a lot of cigarettes
I got a hangover but I never got rid of it
My heart got broke and my brain got bruised
I still don t know a thing about the tough guy blues
VERSE 2
N.C.
There was this little flirt
Popping out of her shirt
Smiling and laughing
Hanging on to each word
N.C.
So innocent and sweet
Rockin to the beat
I tapped that keg
Like she tapped her little feet
CHORUS 2
A girl half my age in love with me
I got busted at age thirty three
My heart got broke and my brain got bruised
But I still don t know a thing about the tough guy blues
BRIDGE
So high so fast that s when I crashed
Down in the gutter tossed out of my ass
VERSE 3
N.C.
Like a cartoon Saturday morning
I wave by still hovering
And splat on the ground
Know the true meaning of suffering
x2
N.C.
I got a reason for the anger
Like a blind blues singer
I gouge out my eyes
And let a stray dog lick my finger
x2
CHORUS 3
I get sad sometimes act suicidal
I look like Jesus but I ve never read the Bible
My heart got broke and my brain got bruised
But I still don t know a thing about the tough guy blues
