[Chorus: Todd Snider]
I said I, I'm takin' it as it comes
And you know that it comes to everyone
I said I'm just sittin' back here
I'm gettin' high and drinking beer
I said I, I'm takin' it as it comes

[Verse 1: Todd Snider]
Well you're damned if you do
And you're damned if you don't
Make a man stop and wonder
'Bout whether he will or he won't
But I'm in my prime
And I'm enjoying my time
I'm too busy out chasin' life
To stop livin' mine

[Chorus: Todd Snider and Amy LaVere]
I said I, I'm takin' it as it comes
And you know that it comes to everyone
I said I'm just sittin' back here
I'm gettin' high and drinking beer
I'm just takin' it as it comes

[Verse 2: Todd Snider]
[?] eat more possum
God bless John Wayne
It seems like everybody
Wants to be a cowboy these days
But you know ridin' the range
It's either rank stock or strange
It's all in the luck of the buck of the draw, boy
How tight you're holding your reins
[Chorus: Todd Snider and Amy LaVere]
I said I, I'm takin' it as it comes
And you know that it comes to everyone
I said I'm just sittin' back here
I'm gettin' high and drinking beer
I'm just takin' it as it comes
I'm takin' it as it comes
And you know that it comes to everyone
I said I'm just sittin' back here
I'm gettin' high and drinkin' some beer
