i used to be a simple little country boy
i didn't even know the time of day
but i could see brighter lights in the city at night
i told myself i was going to stay
big city big city well you ain't quite big enough for me
well i used to go fishing nearly every day
i used to catch myself a trout or two
but i could see bigger fish in the city at night
well i should know where i caught myself you
no you're not well i used to have a job but it didn't pay
i told myself that i had to quit
but i walked in that office with a gun in my hand
he said "shoot 'cause i don't give a shit"
