“Got Bit Again”

(shoo bop bop)

Eight years I’ve been off the road,

(shoo bop bop)

but life at home has been a heavy load.

(shoo bop bop)

Two kids and far too much land.

I know they won’t approve, but I hope they understand.


Late at night the bottle rattles,

rolling on the floor to and fro.

Try to stay away if I can,

but oh no…


(oh) I thought that I could handle the abuse

the rolling wheels lay on me,

over and over again.

(oh) I thought that I could manage to stay loose,

but now it’s obvious I got bit again.


(shoo bop bop)

The day done, I wait for the call –

(shoo bop bop)

a reason to stay out, anything at all.

(shoo bop bop)

Slow down for one final score

to keep my hands from shaking as I reach for the door.


It’s all hugs and shrieking children,

housework that I haven’t begun,

no money, no quiet moments,

and no fun…


(oh) I thought that I could handle the abuse

the rolling wheels lay on me,

over and over again.

(oh) I thought that I could manage to stay loose,

but now it’s obvious I got bit again.

(la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
