Lyrics
Sticks and Tin
Verse 1:
The doctor says I?ve gotta give up the drink
My ex-wife?s buggin? me to see a shrink
I can?t figure out why the frigerator stinks
And my kid got expelled again.
My mortgage payments are way overdue
Got a boss that treats me like a worn out shoe
My dog bit the preacher and the mayor too
An? my momma?s back in the pen
Chorus
Sold the house, quit the job, and I bought an RV
40 footer, slideout, and a color TV.
Ain?t no debt collector gonna find me again
Rollin out in my castle made of sticks and tin.
Gonna go to the ocean, throw my cell phone in
Chillin out in my castle made of sticks and tin.
Verse 2
There?s a foxy little lady at the Dairy Queen
Her man is lazy and he?s twice as mean
She?s ?a workin back to back on the double shift
And I?m bettin she?s ready to catch her a lift.
I?m gonna roll by there on the way out of town
And say hey there baby, put the french fries down
Give the buns a rest, give the boss the keys
Tell the world adios and come a rollin? with me.
Chorus
Sold the house, quit the job, and I bought an RV
40 footer, slideout, and a color TV.
Ain?t no debt collector gonna find me again
Rollin out in my castle made of sticks and tin.
Gonna go to the ocean, throw my cell phone in
Chillin? out in my castle made of sticks and tin.
I don?t got no address, I ain?t gettin? no mail,
But I got a hot number and we?re livin? life well
I don?t got no obligations, I?m just takin? a spin
Chillin out in my castle made of sticks and tin.
