Can’t Complain Lyrics

[Intro]
A little out of place
A little out of tune
Sorta lost in space
Racin' that moon
Climbin' the walls
Of a hurricane
Still overall
I can't complain

[Verse 1]
All I wanted was one chance
To let freedom ring
They said I had to get a permit
Tags and everything
I never made it through the red tape
I got this paper hat
I got a job workin' weekdays
You want fries with that?

[Chorus]
I got nothin' to lose, nothin' to gain
It's like a one-way ticket to cruisin' the passin' lane
I can't complain

[Verse 2]
I was talkin' with my girlfriend
I told her I was stressed
I said "I'm goin' off the deep-end"
She said "God, for once give it a rest"
We're all waitin' in the dugout
Thinkin' we should pitch
How you gonna throw a shutout
If all you do is bitch?

[Chorus]
I got nothin' to lose, nothin' to gain
It's like a one-way ticket to cruisin' the passin' lane
I can't complain

[Verse 3]
Now I've got a brand new dance
I need one more shot
I just need one last chance
You know I won't get caught
I wanna make my last stand
This time I can't be bought
But then again, on the other hand
How much have you got?

[Chorus]
I got nothin' to lose, nothin' to gain
It's like a one-way ticket to cruisin' the passin' lane
I can't complain

[Outro]
A little out of place
A little out of tune
Sorta lost in space
Racin' that moon
Climbin' the walls
Of this hurricane
Still overall
I can't complain
Still overall
I can't complain
Hey, how are you all?
I can't complain

[Outro 2]
Will the circle be unbroken?
By and by, Lord, by and by
There's a better home a-waitin'
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
