[Verse 1]

Sitting at a stop sign

Lookin' for a friend of mine

Waiting to salute the flag

Talkin' to some he/she

Slidin' over next to me

Man, she said, this life is a drag

It's a shaky situation

I'm hangin' on my will

From a hundred dollar bill

And I'll do it 'till I drop

You do what you want to do
F# C#
I ain't never gonna stop
[Chorus]

You say you got something that makes you feel good

And you can't stop messin' with it

'Cause you can't stop messin' with it.

From the rich folks on the hill

They're screamin' hallellujah

'Cause I got my own religion
