Badless - The Best Damn Things in Life Are Free lyrics

Well I met her in college

Hanging out at sigma chi

Singing stoned and drunken versions

Of american pie

We picked up and married

Soon as she got out of school

I'd soon hit the big time

Seemed like the thing to do

I must have overlooked something

¡®cause I'm over my head

But the best damn things in life are free

And as long as I got your company

That's what she said

I'm not one for worrying

¡®bout dreams left unfulfilled

But it's a long way to the ¡°garden¡±

From the canton bar and grill

And the wife's got a lifestyle

That she's looking to maintain

That these musicians wages

Can't hope to sustain

I'm running out of options

I'm running out of time

Just tell me how to make it pay

If it takes me 27 hours a day

I won't mind

It's a matter of opinion

Between right and wrong

In you circles of distinction

I can't last that long

I know I'm not worth much

To you financially

But the best damn things in life are free

Some read the wall street journal

Some play the lottery

Some invest in foreign lands

That they have never seen

Others roll the dice or spin the wheel

Or play their hand

MeI learned to play guitar

And joined a long haired band
