There I go again I'm talkin' way too much Not a word can get in edge-wise I hope that no one thinks I'm fine the way I am It's just that silence never sits right There I go again, I'm talkin' out my ass & disappointed no one's takin' me to task Cause I can't slow it down & I can't hold it back Cause you can't build a house on a rolling stone Everybody's glad when I come and I go In between they're pissed I'm bad with names You can't fight a fire with a rolled up hose & I've never been to half the places I go, 49 of 50 states But if the creek don't rise & the world's still round I'm gonna heat it up until I burn it out I can't help wonderin' if I'm wired all wrong I've been in almost 40 weddings I've stained my cummerbund with alligator tears I'm gettin' too good at pretending There I go again just pushing it too hard There's something challenging about an open bar Cause I can't slow it down & I can't hold it back Cause you can't build a house on a rolling stone Everybody's glad when I come and I go In between they're pissed I'm bad with names You can't fight a fire with a rolled up hose & I've never been to half the places I go, 49 of 50 states But if the creek don't rise & the world's still round I'm gonna heat it up until I burn it out I can see myself a husband with a daughter I can see myself a lush who dies alone In between em both's my mother & my father Beggin' me to pick a road Cause you can't build a house on a rolling stone Everybody's glad when I come and I go In between they're pissed I'm bad with names You can't fight a fire with a rolled up hose & I've never been to half the places I go, 49 of 50 states But if the creek don't rise & the world's still round I'm gonna heat it up until I burn it out
