Well I'm up and gone
every day at dawn
Just-a workin' like a
regular dog
To keep the woman and the
water and the lights and the
phone turned on
I been sayin' yes sir
all day at work
I been sayin' yes ma'am
at home
Savin' up my cuss words
And keepin' 'em under
my tongue
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
The devil in me done
been asleep too long
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good
for too long
Well I went to a company party
I didn't even drink enough
to get high
I met a preppy little wimp
I should-a whipped
But I let him slide
'Ole Hambone McGraw's
got the law paid off
Dealin' blackjack
Saturday nights
And I could triple my
take-home pay
if it weren't for my wife
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
The devil in me done
been asleep too long
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good
for too long
I got a number on my mind
I been fightin' off the urge
to call
A hot **** raisin' blonde bomb
with a southern drawl
Some good 'ole boys called
collect from Mississippi
Said the fishin' been
a-missin' me
And I could sure get it up
for a smoke and a Delta Queen
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
The devil in me done
been asleep too long
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good
for too long
Said it looks like I been
too **** good too long
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
The devil in me done
been asleep too long
I need a little time off
for bad behavior
It looks like I been too good
for too long
