I'm hearing people say that I'm good for naught
And I watch their life as it goes to pot
Hey, oh well
And my ex-girl is now married with kids
I guess she did something that I never did
Hey,
oh well
The bank man came to retake my house
And I whipped his ass after he ran his mouth Hey,
oh well
Cause the devil keeps trying to steal my peace
I keep my shotgun shells full of black eyed
peas Hey,
oh well
It's only gonna take a little bit of
money A whole lot of luck and you and me,
honey
We gotta learn to laugh cause life is kinda funny
As we make our getaway
So baby please That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to knock down
Oh,
I still believe
That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to keep down
Oh,
I've never been short on confidence Or
common sense as I'm swinging for the fence
Hey,
oh well
The rain is gonna fall, the river's gonna rise
And I might tell a preacher a few white lies Hey,
oh well
It's only gonna take a little bit of
money A whole lot of luck and you and me,
honey
We gotta learn to laugh cause life
is kinda funny As we make our getaway
So baby please That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to knock down
Oh,
I still believe
That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to keep down
Oh,
keep down
It's only gonna take a little bit of
money A whole lot of luck and you and me,
honey
We gotta learn to laugh cause life
is kinda funny As we make our getaway
So baby please That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to knock down
Oh,
I still believe
That's why they call me the comeback king
Down south Because I'm so hard to keep down
Oh,
