Hi, buckaroos, Scamp Walker time again
Gonna try to slide one by once more 
Don't matter how ya do it
Just do it like you know what your doing 
Besides, we been down this road one before... 

Chorus: 
Just gettin' by on gettin' by's my stock and trade 
Livin' it day to day 
Pickin' up the pieces where ever they fall 
Just lettin' it roll lettin' the high times carry the load 
I'm livin' my life easy come easy go 

Income tax overdue
I think she is too
Been busted, I'll probably get busted somemore 
But I'll catch it all later
Can't let it stop me now 
Besides, I've been down this road once before... 

Last week i was thinkin
It's record time again
And I can see Ol' Steve Boy pacing the floor 
Oh, Steve, don't ya worry
Something's bound to come out
Besides, we been down this road once before...
