It's Always Something Lyrics

Went to pay my car note off, man it felt so good

Driving home, smoke was rolling up from under my hood

It's always something, yeah it's always something

Pulled over on the shoulder thinking I was on fire

I hit a box of nails, man I had five flat tires

It's always something, yeah it's always something

An uncle died and left a little money heaven sent

Landlord, damn the devil, hell he raised my rent

It's always something, yeah it's always something

Just when I think I'm about to get a step ahead

Something sneaks up on me and drags me back instead

It's always something, yeah it's always something

It's always something, it's this or it's that

If it ain't one thing, it's another that keeps me busted flat

Leeches, thieves, and alley cats

If one ain't picking my pocket, the other one is passing their hats

It's always something, it's this or it's that

If it ain't one thing, it's another that keeps me busted flat

Leeches, thieves, and alley cats

If one ain't picking my pocket, the other one is passing their

Last week I pulled a little overtime

My pipes froze, the plumber soaked up every last dime

It's always something, yeah it's always something

When at last I finally see my ship come in

You can bet your sweet ass it'll soon be sinking

It's always something, yeah it's always something

You know it's always something, yeah it's always something
