Badless The The Best Damn Things In Life Are Free Lyrics

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

 Me, i learned to play guitar

 And joined a long haired band
