[ Featuring Tegio ]
Living on chicken fingers and TV dinners
Out of my motel microwave
Spice 'em up a little with the hot sauce that I've saved
From all the Taco Bells along the way
Sleeping in a sleeping bag on top of dirty covers
God knows what's crawling under those bed sheets
Then it's a lukewarm cup of coffee in the morning in the lobby
That's had the same worn out chairs since '93
It ain't easy... being sleazy
But it sure beats working in the factory
Yeah them long neon nights and long lonely drives
It ain't easy... but it sure is free
Yellow ceilinged smokey bar rooms with old blown out speakers
Old drunks and tweakers on the slot machines
It's another day another dollar, another "play Freebird" being hollered
And I'm just trying to make a living and sing my songs
It ain't easy... being sleazy
But it sure beats working in the factory
Yeah them long neon nights and long lonely drives
It ain't easy... but it sure is free
Maybe one day I'll retire but I'll probably just die here
There really ain't nothing else I'd rather do
And by the good grease of God I'll keep singing and riding songs
And if I'm lucky I'll make a little money too
It ain't easy... being sleazy
But it sure beats working in the factory
Yeah them long neon nights and long lonely drives
It ain't easy... but it sure is free
It ain't easy... being sleazy
It ain't easy just getting by
It ain't easy... being sleazy
But being sleazy... it suits me fine
