Don't you know that i work hard
Don't you know that i play hard
Don't you know it's a hard way
Trace the buslines in the state
Don't you know that i see aah she'd strip for me
Well we're moving around
Me 'n she how the grass barn coming down
And we do it the same
In the name of glory, filth, and fame
Things are going ok find a little puppy love makes a day
Once in the morning and once at night ah
Don't you know that i work hard
Don't you know that i play hard
Don't you know it's a hard way
Trace the buslines in the state
Don't you know that i see aah she'd strip for me
Me and frankie we cried some evenings outside where we lie
When another one comes will we go the night into the sun
Sewed a couple of new
Times like that's the only thing to do oh
Once in the morning and once at night
Oh you know that i work hard
Don't you know that i play hard
Don't you know it's a hard way
Trace the buslines in the state
You know that i see aah she'd strip for me ah
