High Life

歌詞

I can still remember when Grandpa died and our ship came in Daddy said he left Mama and him More money than we'd ever seen Just like that, we were thousandaires Had a brand new boat and a Frigidaire And all us kids in our underwear Were jumpin' on a trampoline A bunch of lowlifes livin' the high life Money burnin' a hole right Through the pockets of our holey jeans Grandpa's with the Lord now But we got a new Ford now And we can watch the Big Orange now On a 57 inch TV, that's right The money was gone by mid-July We went back to just gettin' by ‘Til Mama slipped on a patch of ice Outside of Chick-fil-A Now we knew they was a Christian bunch So we didn't ask for all that much Settled out of court for ten thousand bucks And free chicken ‘til our dyin' day A bunch of lowlifes livin' the high life Money burnin' a hole right Through the pockets of our holey jeans Mama's got a limp now But we all get to swim now ‘Cause we got an aboveground Sittin' out by the trampoline We rocked, we rolled, we lived it up ‘Til it started runnin' thin We began lookin' for a way to spin that wheel again I heard a song a couple months ago It was Carrie Underwood on the radio Reminded me of a poem my brother wrote Back in second grade I know she didn't steal it but so what We lawyered up and we sued her butt These days we figured we'd pretty much Get paid to go away A bunch of lowlifes livin' the high life Money burnin' a hole right Through the pockets of our holey jeans The song's at number one now Gonna get a hot tub now Sittin' next to the aboveground Which is next to the trampoline It's gonna run out someday That ain't gonna be a fun day But as long as it ain't a Sunday We can go to Chick-fil-A and eat Man I love those Waffle fries (I know) That Chick-Fil-A has got some good waffle fries (I'd say, that's right) Maybe I'll get a diet Coke, I don't know (I wish they had beer, it'd be perfect) I like the little trays that the food comes on (I like the Polynesian sauce)
