Six Of One (half Dozen Of The Other) Lyrics

Six Of One (half Dozen Of The Other) lyrics

I do my best to play by the rules

I've bend a couple, even break a few

Don't get me wrong, I wanna do it right

I just can't seem to live the virtuous life

Headaches by the bottle, heartaches by the numbers

Six of one, half dozen of the other



I fell in love with a preacher's daughter

They washed my soul in the holy water

I gave her my heart and bought her a house

The devil broke in, he broke me out

Now I owe the bank some money and I lost another lover

Six of one, half dozen of the other



CHORUS:

No matter how you add it up it's always the same

I give it my best and all I gets is blame

I'm livin', I'm lovin', and barely breakin' even

Can't be me, must be the company I'm keeping



I went all out and made some brand new friends

Started my life all over again

Now some of them are saints, and some of them are sinners

I'm still searchin' for a way to be a winner

I roll boxcars one way or the other

Six of one, half dozen of the other



CHORUS



I roll boxcars one way or the other

Six of one, half dozen of the other(2x)

Half dozen of the other

I roll boxcars one way or the other

Six of one, half dozen or the other
