Well I've took enough pills for big Memphis town
Ol' Jerry Lee's dranked enough whiskey to lift any ship off the ground
I'll be the first to admit
Sure do wish these people would quit it

You know its tough enough
To straightin' up when these idiots won't leave you alone.
Jerry Lee Lewis's life would make a damn good country song
I've always done my best

I've tried to walk tall
Walk on Killer
But when the evening was over I was drunk stumbling into walls
Well I know I've earned my reputation

Can't they see I've found my salvation?
I guess they'd rather prove me wrong
My life would make a damn good country song
Lets get it now!

I've had my share of women
But they always seem to leave
Gonna put me another quarter
In the ol' pinball machine

Well I know the ol' Killers been wrong
That ol' change came over me took too long
My life would make a damn good country song
Jerry Lee Lewis's life would make a damn good country song!
