Van Zant - I'm Doin' Alright lyrics

rate me

I got a spot in the country.

I got a dog in the yard.

I got a beat-up Chevy:

Rust kinda rough but she starts.

I got my Grandaddy's shotgun:

I can shoot pretty good.

I got a nice little garden of weeds,

Tucked back up in the wood.

An' I'm doin all right, livin' my life:

You got yours an' I got mine.

Yeah, it may not look like much to you,

But it's simple an' it suits me fine.

Yeah, the sound of the rain an' a lonely old train:

Listen to that engine whine.

'Cause I am what I am an' I sleep good at night,

An' I'm doin' alright.

I got a front porch for pickin',

I got a National guitar.

I got some lightnin' for sippin':

I've had about a jar.

I got a pretty old lady,

She's good at stretchin' a dime.

In this little corner a-heaven mister,

We have a helluva time.

An' I'm doin all right, livin' my life:

You got yours an' I got mine.

Yeah, it may not look like much to you,

But it's simple an' it suits me fine.

Yeah, the sound of the rain an' a lonely old train:

Listen to that engine whine.

Yeah, I am what I am an' I don't give a damn,

An' I'm doin' alright.

All the rats in the city,

Are livin' out of a box.

They look down their nose, at my life, I suppose,

An' I just laugh my country ass off.

Yeah, I'm doin all right, livin' my life:

You got yours an' I got mine.

Yeah, it may not look like much to you,

But it's simple an' it suits me fine.

Yeah, the sound of the rain an' a lonely old train:

Listen to that engine whine.

'Cause I am what I am an' I sleep good at night,

An' I'm doin' alright.

Yeah, I'm doin' alright.

Doin' alright!.
