High as a cat

Now I’m high as a cat in a catnip patch

The whole damn world can kiss my ass

I don’t know what you think, cuz  I did not ask

And, Hey! Let’s keep hot that way

I work 5 ten hour shifts down at the mill

Hit 3 this week and I’ve had my fill

Give the rest of mine to my cousin Bill

And I’ll be back on Monday

Some folks try to tell me how I ain’t no good

I tell ‘em all to go to hell like a gentleman should

If I need disrespectin’, I can do it myself

Did I mention you can go to hell?

Cause I’m high as a cat in a catnip patch

The whole damn world can kiss my ass

I don’t know what you think, cuz  I did not ask

And, Hey! Let’s keep it that way

The wheel is ever turning

Spinning round and round

Meanwhile, you’re always going toe to toe

And Pound for pound

Sometimes everybody needs to

Take a while

For the things that never fail

To make us smile

Then get high as a cat in a catnip patch

Tell  the whole  damn world to kiss your ass

Don’t know what they think, cuz you did not ask

And, hey! Let’s keep it that way!

I work 5 ten hour shifts down at the mill

Hit 3 this week and I’ve had my fill

Give the rest of mine to my cousin Bill

And kiss my ass til Monday

Some folks try to tell me how I ain’t no good

I tell ‘em all to go to hell like a gentleman should

Don’t need your disrespect, I can do it myself

Did I mention you can go to hell?

Cause I’m high as a cat in a catnip patch

The whole damn world can kiss my ass

I don’t know what you think, cuz  I did not ask

And, Hey! Let’s keep it that way

And, Hey! Let’s keep it that way

And, Hey! Let’s keep it that way
