Work hard do my part and
I can do anything
At least that's what my
Mama told me
But you looked me
Straight in the eye the day that you told me
That I was too old at 33
Before I gave it any thought
I took what you said as truth
Pour one out
And mourn my youth
I guess I'm all done and it's time to go
'Cause the jackals told me
The jackals told me
I don't need to give a damn
Just 'cause
The jackals told me, the jackals told me
I don't need to give a damn
Just 'cause
The jackals told me, the jackals told me so
That's a nice glass home
Oh what a lovely view
From the front door
You can see right through
You can cast that stone
See what your words can do
You never owned me
It won't throw me
You've got nothin on me
& nobody made you king
It's a goddam coup
So you can take a knee
You don't run this scene
And I'm not foldin'
No I'm not foldin'
I don't need to give a damn
Just 'cause
The jackals told me, the jackals told me
I don't need to give a damn
Just 'cause
The jackals told me, the jackals told me so
It's truly wasted, the breath you've spent on saying
You win. Congratulations
On a game that I'm not playing
You should know that I'm not playin'
