Livin' Within My Means, lyric by C.w. Mccall

from the songs album Roses For Mama


(ron agnew)

Well, i was a poor boy
Just a-kickin' around
Eighteen, with a head full a' dreams
Took some money back then
Did a year in the pen
For not livin' within my means

I worked ev'ry day
I did my time the hard way
I walked out a' that place feelin' clean
I got a job, a guitar
I bought an old beat-up car
Started livin' within my means

Fell in love with a beautiful lady, of sorts
But she was ruthless, restless, and mean
She left me one day
And now i've had to pay
For not lovin' within my means

Then i took to drinkin'
To drive her from my mind
And it helps me forget her, it seems
I just drink now and then
Only now i'm drunk again
For not drinkin' within my means

Now i know that i'm dyin'
But i don't worry none
'cause i know my soul he'll redeem
But what bothers me
Unless they bury me free
Is i won't even die within my means

But when the dyin's all over
An' i come back again
Say "to hell" with self-pride and esteem
I'll get born in my teens
An' i'll stick to my dreams
Try dreamin' within my means
