Heads or Tails Lyrics
Intro:
E A (strummed)
Do what I want, do what I want (x2)
Do what I want, do what I want (x2)
I'm a real live hobo, I prefer my life on the rails
I keep a coin in my pocket, my only friend is head or tails
I had a wife and a family I let them fend on their own
You only count on yourself, hope they appreciate what they've been shown
Sometimes I flip the coin
Oh yeah I flip the coin
Oh I flip the coin
Ya I flip the coin
Do what I want, do what I want (x2)
I hopped the Union Pacific headed to Cliforniyay
I rubbed the coin in my pocket and wondered just what they'd say
I was met with open arms, warm bed, and fam was back in my lap
She said "don't leave us again for that drink you use as a map"
But then I flipped the coin
Oh yeah I flipped the coin
Oh yeah I flipped the coin
Ya I flipped the coin
Do what I want, do what I want (x2)
Sometimes a man gets an itch to take a nip off a scotch or rye
With every sip there's a flip, fates been chosen no need to try
I love sleeping under stars watching woods and worlds zooming by
My life's the flip of the coin, it's the freest way to live and die
Because I flipped the coin
Oh yeah I flipped the coin
Oh yeah I flipped the coin
Ya I flipped the coin
Bridge:
Do what I want, do what I want (x4)
I do what I want, yes I do, I do what I want
I could have anything, but I prefer nothing
I don't need a house, I don't need a hug
I don't need stuff, I don't need love
I don't need things, I don't need books, I don't need you
I do what I want
