lyrics

I Refrain
Ned Hill

I oughta marry Becky Hinson-that girl can give me what I’m missing
A mortgage, job, and two kids to boot-wingtip shoes and a business suit-ah yes
And when I drink too much, she’ll set me straight-your dreams are gone, you got bills to pay

I wanna find a new addiction-one that will scratch me when I’m itchin’
Walk the tightrope of life and death-all my fans will think I’m a tortured mess
A real genius
They’ll send me cards, emails, and letters-maybe even buy a few more records

Oh no
Oh no I
Oh no
Oh no I refrain

I wanna a brand new president-I don’t like the one we sent
I’d like to tie him up with a big ol’ bow-and send him on down to Mexico
As our gift
And send his dirty money down in stacks-you can keep it all, just don’t send him back

Oh no
Oh no I
Oh no
Oh no I refrain
