lyrics

I don’t wanna rough nobody up
but I will yeah I will
I just need to sell the family gun
I just need a few dollars for the truck
I just need to lay down in the sun
And I will yeah I will

Probably not so
Bad once you get to know the cat
Said the mouse who
Already had chalk around where he sat
Probably not so
Bad if we stopped to chew the fat
But where I come from
Talking makes you a rat

I don’t wanna rough nobody up
but I will yeah I will
I just need to sell the family gun
I just need a few dollars for the truck
I just need to lay down in the sun
And I will yeah I will

Your Breaking down like
Cars on the freeway (hide the stash)
When your help comes
You’ll have left your wallet on the dash
And I will tell you
That there ain’t no stopping me
From committing
A true highway robbery

I don’t wanna rough nobody up
but I will yeah I will
I just need to sell the family gun
I just need a few dollars for the truck
I just need to lay down in the sun
And I will yeah I will

I’m gonna have Corrina make you a playlist
She’ll know all the songs to break y’all’s hearts
I’m gonna have Corrina make you a playlist
She’ll know how tear y’all apart

I don’t wanna rough nobody up
I don’t wanna rough nobody up
I don’t wanna rough nobody up
But I will yeah I will

I don’t wanna fuck nobody up
I don’t wanna fuck nobody up
I don’t wanna fuck nobody up
But I will yeah I will
I just need to sell the family gun
I just need a few dollars for the truck
I just need to lay down in the sun
And I will yeah I will

(Oh that’s the sun)
