Life's Too Short

Jerry Jeff Walker, Steady Freddie Krc, Cosmic Bob Livingston
 Lately I'm feeling lousy all the time
 I picked up my pants sat down tried to figure out why
 I had it whittled down to a page or two
 And the paper trail led me straight to you
 I see life's too short to put up with the things you do
 Spell you cast been messing with my sanity
 Call me now baby while you stickin' them pins in me
 But I figure if I'm finally over you
 Cause I see right through that little 'doo you do
 When life's too short to be involved with a witch like you
 Life's too short to get in a rut
 Life's too short to get a bad haircut
 Life's too short to be this long
 Life's too short to admit that you're wrong
 Life's too short to wear tight shoes
 Life's too short to be blue
 Life's too short to be involved with a girl like you
 When I walk out I'll be free as a man can be
 As funky as a monkey swinging high in the jungle tree
 And if that lion asks for you or the monkey asks or the elephant too
 I'll send you back home there caged up in your zoo
 Life's too short for cheap guitars
 Life's too short to smoke cheap cigars
 Get your kicks from dead beat chicks
 For chewing gum down at the end of the bar
 Life's too short for steamship cruise
 Life's too short to be blue
 Life's too short to be involved with someone like you
 Yeah, life's too short to brush and floss
 Life's too short to sleep with the boss
 Six way lights or disco bars
 Or trying to pick up chicks in a compact car
 Life's too short for a bad tattoo
 Life's too short to be blue
 Life's too short to be involved with a girl like you
 Yeah, life's too short to be involved with someone like you
 Yeah, life's too short to be involved with someone like you
