Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah, uh huh, hey, oh yeah, oo hoo
Here we go, one, two, one two three four
ย
I cried my tears with a glass of tequila
For a truck-stop honey with a dubious name
She held my heart like a blackjack dealer
Took my money when I left the game
She was overly fond of sophisticated fucking around
I've had a bellyful of living on the same old merry-go-round
Well I played in the Summer, I froze in the Winter
I hankered for a high school beauty queen
She was married to a rich young timber-miller
And christened a boy when she was just nineteen
Crazy love, I'm never gonna settle down
I've had a bellyful of living on the same old merry-go-round
Like any man I gotta work for a living
Just to earn my work for the weekend show
Saturday morning I'll be down by the river
Pissed at the Copmanhurst rodeo
A weekend comes, I'll set fire to the town
I've had a bellyful of living, the same old merry-go-round
Take it away now, shh, yeah
Alright, oh, shh
I wanna leave this town, gonna leave the town, I wanna set fire to the town
Leave this town, gonna leave the town, I wanna set fire to...
I wanna set fire to the town, yeah
I wanna set fire to the town
I wanna set fire to the town right now
I'll set fire to the town right now (here we go)
I wanna fire to the town
I'll set fire to the town
I'll set fire to the town (here we go)
I'll set fire to the town
ย
Well I'm looking out as the sun goes down
Drinking Bundaburg at the end of the day
I'm twenty-five and only half alive
The rest is only just a ticket away
Well give me a ticket, take me to a city hotel, oh yeah
I've had a bellyful of living, the same old merry-go-round
I've had a bellyful of living, the same old merry-go-round, yes I have
I've had a bellyful of living, the same old merry-go-round, woh, here we go, yeah
One two three four
ย
Oh... wooh
Alright, how you doin'?
