Free Cigarettes

Life is an endless greenroom Bunch of shit that I'm so sick of eating If you can't draw a crowd Then draw a dick on the wall Pay someone in Nashville to write your songs Pay a stranger to tune your guitar The only royalty I know Is the fraction of pennies that I am owed Nothing comes easy You learn it the hard way You pay for it always Heaven is a clean hotel room There's warm cookies at the counter when you check in There's always fresh clean bath towels You never have to make your own bed The cable TV and internet are free Late checkout is available upon request The only royalty I know Is the fraction of pennies that I am owed Nothing comes easy You learn it the hard way You pay for it always The venue takes a cut of the door But always remember you are the star Nothing comes easy You learn it the hard way You pay for it always Rosa Lee, Rosa Lee I dropped a little acid and I listened to you sing I was feeling low now I'm feeling differently I am ashamed I could not see The expansion right in front of me I was not blind I was just lazy
