Listen man, you wanna know the hardest thing in life? It’s not hitting a curveball It’s taking good advice I know, you’ve got to find things out for yourself It’s not easy knowledge, but it’s hard to learn from someone else
The angels went to heaven, Old Scratch he went to hell Some said ‘which way you going man?’ I said ‘I just can’t tell’ But I know, I better make my mind up pretty soon Easy knowledge, no such animal in this zoo
Old Grandad told Jack Daniel, ‘son don’t never ride the rail’ Jack hopped himself a train And spent the night in jail I know, I bailed him out myself yesterday Easy knowledge, sooner or later got to pay
Caught up in a magnificent obsession I guess I’m never gonna learn my lesson But when it comes and the game’s on the line I know I’m gonna be there, honey Right on time
Looking for an angle baby, trying to make a buck Get your ante on the table, And I wish you all the luck ‘Cause I know, we ain’t never gonna learn Easy knowledge, there’s no such thing in this world (x3)
