Ray Wylie Hubbard Bad Trick Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Don't get any on you if you go to Nashville
Don't operate machinery if you're on Benadryl
You got to have some faith if you in a lion's den
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Verse 2]
Club soda always don't remove ketchup stains
Ain't nothing you can take is gonna cure a migraine
Broken dreams is a premise in Of Mice and Men
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Chorus]
You've got to have some scars if you wanna be a poet
To get weeds out of a garden, you've got to hoe it
Possession with intent will get you five to ten
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Verse 3]
Most gamblers know that they'll never break even
There's five stages to go through when you're grieving
The sword is always bloodier than the pen And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Chorus]
You've got to have some scars if you wanna be a poet
To get weeds out of a garden, you've got to hoe it
Possession with intent will get you five to ten
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Verse 4]
Dancing is promiscuous after midnight
It's best to be content than to have to be always be right
You can't fix a broken heart with a bobby pin
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then

[Chorus]
You've got to have some scars if you wanna be a poet
To get weeds out of a garden, you've got to hoe it
Possession with intent will get you five to ten
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then
And everybody turns a bad trick now and then, woo

[Outro]
Oh, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
