There ain't a pair of boots in my closet That ain't scuffed up and walked right through the soles And there ain't a pair of jeans That ain't hanging on by the seams and full of holes I ain't never been inside a three piece suit And my collar's just a worn out shade of blue I try to beat the morning sun out of the bed And then I work like hell 'til the sun goes down And then I rest my head next to The most beautiful thing you've ever seen Lord only knows what she means to me Solid as the rock on her left hand She's proud to be my woman And that's why I'm proud to be her man She has flowers in her hair on Sunday mornin' And she has a bud light in her hand on Friday night She's corn bread in the oven She's wild and crazy loving me just right Oh you know that's right She ain't afraid to put me in my place And she ain't afraid to love me every night, so every day I try to beat the morning sun out of bed Then I work like hell 'til the sun goes down And then I rest my head next to The most beautiful thing you've ever seen Lord only knows what she means to me Solid as the rock on her left hand She's proud to be my woman And that's why I'm proud to be her man And she can rock a dress and cowboy boots Make a rolling stone wanna plant some roots And she's the one thing that I can't afford lose So I try to beat the morning sun out of the bed And then I work like hell 'til the sun goes down And then I rest my head next to The most beautiful thing you've ever seen Lord only knows what she means to me The reason I keep this ring on my left hand She's proud to be my woman That's why I'm proud to be her man She's proud to be my woman And that's why I'm proud to be her man

Did you ever have one of those days When it just rains and it rains? You mind and your whole back aches But you get up anyways You gave up your dreams, you got a boss to please It makes you wonder if it's worth it Loosen my chain 'cause even my pain is hurting I said, "Lord won't you give an old boy a break You said you wouldn't give me more than I could take" But this old world, it sure rattles your faith sometimes Well you try and you try and you keep on trying Happy's for sale but you can't buy it How 'bout a little something to ease a man's burden? 'Cause even my pain is hurting My house ain't worth what I owe I've been all my life owing that load And like a sucker I bought what they sold But down here in the ground ain't gold Yeah I've been a caged bird singing Waiting on freedom, feeling like my prayers ain't working Go on and loosen my chain 'cause even my pain is hurting So I said, "Lord cant you give an old boy a break You said you wouldn't give me more than I could take" But this old world can sure rattle your faith sometimes Yeah 'cause you try and you try and you keep on trying Happy's for sale but you can't buy it How 'bout a little something to ease a man's burden? 'Cause even my pain is hurting I got a loaded forty-five laying on to the table Next to a bottle of old Black Label Can't be the only way to ease a man's burden So I said, "Lord won't you give an old boy a break You said you wouldn't give me more than I could take" But this old world can sure rattle your faith sometimes Yeah 'cause you try and you try and you keep on trying Happy's for sale but you can't buy it How 'bout a little something to ease a man's burden?
