Time Off For Bad Behavior Lyrics - Singles - Confederate Railroad

I'm up and gone everyday at dawn 

Just a workin' like a regular dog 

To keep the woman and the water 

And the lights and the phone turned on 

I've been sayin', "Yes sir" all day at work 

I've been sayin', "Yes ma'am" at home 

Savin' up my cuss words 

And keepin' 'em under my tongue 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

The devil in me done been asleep too long 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

It looks like I've been too good for too long 

Well I went to a company party, I didn't even drink enough to get high 

I met a preppy little wimp I shoulda whipped but I let him slide 

Ol' Hambone McGraw got the law paid off 

Dealing blackjack Saturday nights 

And I could triple my take-home pay if it weren't for my wife 

Need a little time off for bad behavior 

The devil in me done been asleep too long 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

It looks like I've been too good for too long 

I got a number on my mind 

That I've been a fightin' off the urge to call 

A hot, hell-raisin' blonde bomb 

With a Southern drawl 

Some good-old boys called collect from Mississippi 

Said the fishin' been a missin' me 

And I could sure get it up for a smoke 

And a Delta Queen 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

The devil in me done been asleep too long 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

It looks like I've been too good for too long 

I said, "It looks like I've been too damn good too long" 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

The devil in me done been asleep too long 

I need a little time off for bad behavior 

It looks like I've been too good for too long
