Relationships: easy to get into, hard to maintain. Why are they so hard to maintain? Cause it’s hard to keep up the lie. 'Cause you can't get nobody being you. You got to lie to get somebody. You can't get nobody lookin' like you look, actin' like you act, soundin' like you sound. That's right, when you meet somebody for the first time, you're not meeting them. You're meeting their representative!

I can settle down and be doin' just fine Till I hear an old freight rollin' down the line, Then I hurry straight home and pack And if I didn't go, I believe I'd blow my stack I love you baby, but you gotta understand When the Lord made me he made a ramblin' man.
