The Week Of Living Dangerously - Steve Earle (史提夫·厄尔)

Written by：Steve Earle

I got out of work and I headed for the

Neighborhood beer joint

I sat around and had a beer with the boys

Like I always do

Well I didn't have nothin' to say anyway there ain't

No point

There's just something 'bout a monday that always makes me

Blue

Well it was well after dark so I knew my

Wife and kids were waitin'

And I guess I took a left where I generally

Take a right

Well I filled her up with gas checked the oil

At the texaco station

I threw the car seat in the dumpster and headed

Off into the night

Woo ohh ooh ooh

There's somethin' 'bout a monday that always makes me blue

Well I headed south on thirty five hell bent for

Vinyl

I hadn't never had her up past fifty five before

Well somethin' 'bout that little red line always looked so

Final

Hey you'd be surprised how fast a chevrolet truck can

Go

Now down in Mexico

They've got a little place called

Boystown

Where a man's still a man if you know what

I'm talkin' about

Well I walked into the cadillac bar and I laid

My cash down

I said there's plenty more where that came from and

The lights went out

Woo ooh ohh ohh

There's somethin' 'bout a Monday that always makes me

Blue

Well can do first

Well I woke up in a county jail 'cross

The line in laredo

I had a headache and a deputy staring at me

Through the door

He said now how you got across that river alive

I don't know

But your wife just made your bail so now you're

Really dead for sure

Now my wife she called my boss and she lied

And so I got my job back

And the boys down at the plant they whisper and

Stare at me

Well my wife can find a lot of little jobs

To keep me on the right track

That's a small price to pay for a week of

Living dangerously

Woo ohh ooh wee

That's a small price to pay for a week of

Living dangerously
