Lyrics

My guardian angel wears a hard hat
Said the boy with the microphone
I wouldn't be standing here today
Ever since I was a young a boy
I couldn't leave well enough alone
Always trouble standing in my way
Up, down, anywhere but in the middle
Off the wagon, under the wheel again
All are nothing - never could do just a little
Never could leave it alone
Hard living be the death of me
Yes, lead me to an early grave
To die in the saddle, must be my destiny
But to ride this rocking horse I must be crazed
Good clean fun is just my imagination
Down and dirty that's the way the game is played
This hard life has caused me aggravation
Never could leave it alone
Oh now Baby
Can't leave it alone
Got to ride that rocking horse
Can't leave it alone
Never could leave it alone
