The Hustler

[Verse 1] I've got somethin' with me My soul's kinda gritty Now do I lie or run away? Engine, engine number nine You get your way, or I'll get mine Sure as the sun will shine each day [Pre-Chorus] Just like the apple temptress sets in I win, you're tackled Shackles on my feet won't let me move Not soft, but supple Come with all you got, my wings won't ruffle Victory is sweet, but I ain't scared to lose [Chorus] In my house, the moon still shines in the day (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay (We all gotta pay) In my house, feel free to dance like it's May (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay [Verse 2] Momma, can you hear me? (What?) Papa, I'm sittin' pretty Don't have to shun my heart this time I know when it really Matters, it'll be me Alone and regrets will be none [Pre-Chorus] Just like the apple temptress sets in I win, you're tackled Shackles on my feet won't let me move Not soft, but supple Come with all you got, my wings won't ruffle Victory is sweet, but I ain't scared to lose [Chorus] In my house, the moon still shines in the day (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay (We all gotta pay) In my house, feel free to dance like it's May (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay [Bridge] I'll be on my own It don't matter, I'm grown I won't be singin' no sad song in the land And if I rub you wrong, baby, I'll come on strong I got no mind to cushion what I say [Chorus] In my house, the moon still shines in the day (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay (We all gotta pay) In my house, feel free to dance like it's May (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay (We all gotta pay) In my house, the moon still shines in the day (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay (We all gotta pay) In my house, feel free to dance like it's May (In my house) But there's a lot of old bills I gotta pay [Outro] In my house (The the day) In my house (Won't you stay?) In my house (In my house) In my house, the moon will shine, shine in the day, yeah
