Messin' with Me

I ain't no hero
Honky tonk or plain
You might not live like me
But I love you all the same
I learned to two-step
When I found folks could be cruel
If anybody wants to step to you
Honey, I'll come steppin', too
And if they're gonna mess with somebody
They're messin' with me
If they're gonna mess with somebody
They're messin' with me
I know you're weary
You know who's been hangin' 'round
That ain't gonna be your used to be
I'll be there to hold it down
Keep that good for nothin's
F-U-know-what mouth shut
If he's callin' you a C-U-know-what
He'll wish he never pressed his luck
And if he's gonna mess with somebody
He's messin with me
If he's gonna mess with somebody
He's messin' with me

Long Game

I didn't take the easy road
Oh, I couldn't find it
So I took one of my own
And I'm gonna ride it
Might work my feet to the bone
But I don't mind it
We all got our own way of growin'
Ain't gotta justify it
Oh, I ain't worried
I'm playing the long game
I am not ashamed
I'm not where I thought I'd be
I'm nothing to acclaim
Not everybody knows my name
I'm playing the long game
Slowly but surely
Maybe someday I'll make it far
Oh, I really would like to
Own a franchise of neighborhood bars
That only I've got the rights to
Won't be fussin' 'bout the road I took
Though I have half a mind to
And the other half will take a second look
Don't you know I've got the time to
Oh, I ain't worried
I'm playing the long game
I am not ashamed
I'm not where I thought I'd be
I'm nothing to acclaim
Not everybody knows my name
I'm playing the long game
Slowly but surely

Bad News (By No Means)

I go big, then I go home
If there's a will, there's a way
Don't think I won't
Some might say I'm off the rails
This train steers itself
I'm bad news by no means
I am by no means bad news
I'm bad news by no means
I am by no means bad news
But I'll knock a couple back, cut a rug
That's just the way I let loose
I go where the standards are low
The stools are high, so am I
But that's the way it goes
Barkeeps here all know my name
Even though my reasoning has seen some better days
I'm bad news by no means
I am by no means bad news
I'm bad news by no means
I am by no means bad news
But I'll knock a couple back, cut a rug
That's just the way I let loose
