AHis daddy said son you oughta quit dreamin'
Put your feet on the ground and your future in the hands of the LEord
But the boy said Ano that ain't enough dad
All you got here is a ceEiling' four walls and a Afloor
He left his hDome in Buckalou CounAty
He went thumbin' and sleepin' on the roadside livin' in jeEans
Along about APittsburgh he got him a good job
Bought him a brand new MaElibu Chevy that was part of his drAeams
He met a pretty girl she was thinkin' of a family
He bought a lotta tapes for his Malibu Chevy but he didn't want mEore
And the pretty girl sAaid boy you oughta slow down
He said who needs a ceEiling' four walls and a Afloor
He did a little Ddrinkin' he did a little Agamblin'
Shot a little nine ball bet a little money on the football gaEmes
He picked up a haAbit he got it on the sidewalk
His habit got biEgger but his weekly paycheck stayed the sAame
His daddy wrote letters but he never answered
The pretty girl begged him to give up the habit and to work on a cEhain
It was a real small gAun and a real small robbery
They locked him up and they trEaded him a number for his nAame
It ain't no big Dnews it ain't no big Astory
You didn't see it in the paper so I guess we oughta put it in a sEong
The boy got hoAoked and he couldn't get unhEooked
And it's happenin' somewhere now and maybe that's what's wArong
AHis daddy said son you oughta quit dreamin'
Put your feet on the ground and your future in the hands of the LEord
But the boy said Ano that ain't enough dad
All you got here is a ceEiling' four walls and a Afloor
