Merle Haggard - I've Done It All lyrics

rate me

(Merle Haggard)

Did you ever steal a quarter when you was ten years old

Ever wear a brogan with a hole in the sole

Did you ever ride a freight train while runnin' from the law

I've done it all Lawd Lawd I've done it all.

Did you ever spend a winter in a dirty jail

Did you ever buy a top coat at a rummage sale

Did you ever spend a Christmas inside detention hall

I've done it all Lawd Lawd I've done it all.

Well I've picked my share of cotton boys

And I've drove one railroad spike

And I've been ever where I talk about

And I can tell you what it's like.

I've even been to Frisco wearin' regular clothes

Felt them moden hippy folks starin' down their nose

I can proudly say I've answered my patriotic call

I've done it all Lawd Lawd I've done it all hey.

Well, I've picked my share of cotton boys

And I've drove one railroad spike

And I've been ever where I talk about

And I can tell you what it's like.

I've even been to Frisco wearin' regular clothes

Felt them moden hippy folks starin' down their nose

I can proudly say I've answered my patriotic call

I've done it all Lawd Lawd I've done it all hey.
