Well I aint got no fancy degree
And I can barely even pluck the six string
And I aint too big but I can take down a hog
And I aint been crying but I sure do miss my dog
Well my old girl don't wanna talk to Me
All the work I get is pretty lousy
My ride is wheezing and I can't afford the rent
And Uncle Sam still wants 40 percent
They try to beat Me up and beat Me down
I had no solution but got one now
Say that I can't well boy hold my beer
I aint got much and that includes fear
And sometimes I don't know where I'm going to go
And I'm sleeping in My pickup truck
But I'm gonna build a home
Well My bones are the boards and my hair is the roof
And My tongue is a hound that's bound to get loose
And My heart of course a furnace that keeps on burning
And everyday I build I keep on learning
Well I know that you don't believe in Me
Ya probably don't think I can even sing
No internet and no text messaging
Cuz I've been living out in the country
They try to beat Me up and beat Me down
I had no solution but got one now
Say that I can't well boy hold my beer
I aint got much and that includes fear
And sometimes I don't know where I'm going to go
And I'm sleeping in My pickup truck
But I'm gonna build a home
