Life’s a Ditch

No good deed goes unpunished
I just now realized
Don't ever try to dodge a deer on highway 45
So here i am with 2 wheels stuck
Axle deep in mud
There's a lot of things that come to mind
When you get mad enough

[Chorus]
Life's a ditch on the side of the road
The sun beatin' down 10 miles from home
Cars passin' by pay me no mind
I could throw a fit
Get a little ticked
Or just admit
Life's a ditch

So i finally found my cellphone
On the floorboard of my car
Must be one dry county
Couldn't even get one bar
So I'm standin' on my bumper
Then a call goes through at last
A truck blows by my feet fly up and I'm face down with a splash

[Chorus]
Life's a ditch on the side of the road
The sun beatin' down 10 miles from home
Cars passin' by pay me no mind
I could throw a fit
Get a little ticked
Or just admit
Life's a ditch

Now I'm lookin' for that cellphone
In the water and the weeds
When a kid wades up behind me
Pants rolled up to his knees
He's strollin' like it's heaven
He laughs and dips his neck
And then says "Howdy mister, caught any crawdads yet?"
One look at his grin, and the truth sunk in

[Chorus]
Yeah life's a ditch on the side of the road
The sun beatin' down 10 miles from home
Cars passin' by pay me no mind
I could throw a fit
Get a little ticked
Or just kick back and go with it
I guess ya get what ya get
So its all in how you look at it
Life's a ditch
A big ol' ditch, get it?
Life's a ditch
A big ol' ditch
