Fat Cat Joe & The Vagabond Town Council - Do Something With Your Life

Close your Facebook page designer, throw the race for the recliner
Grab your compass and your knapsack and your knife
Dam the creek, climb the mountain, let some geek do the accountin
For the your momma's sake, do something with your life

Push a plow, tree a coon, tip a cow on your honeymoon
If that's what it takes to please your brand new wife
Show some guts, grab your spouse, get your butts out the coffeehouse
For your own darn good, do something with your life

Now, despite the state religion, life ain't on the television
That's just misery, fads and soda ads and strife
Fight the fire, change the tire, be an outlaw gun for hire
For the love of God, do something with your life

Sing the song, set the mood, right the wrong, end the feud
Don't let the bottom dollar become rife
Break the rules, jump the gun, make a fool out of everyone
For some piece of mind, do something with your life

I ain't sayin' that it's easy, but you won't learn it on TV
Well, maybe some from Friends and Barney Fife
Say a prayer, take the dare, trade some stock in your underwear
For the rest of us, do something with your life

Shine the chrome, foot the bill, build a home up on the hill
And don't pick no Debbie Downer to be your wife
State the fact, play the gig, start to act like you're Mr. Big
Just because you can, do something with your life

And when you find yourself on that big world outside your cell phone
And you leave behind the drama and the strife
Then, storm the coast, set the post
Before you go and give up the ghost
For the love of God, do something with your life

Storm the coast, set the post
Before you go and give up the ghost
For the love of God, do something with your life
