Time Off For Bad Behavior

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
