Gettin by jerry jeff walker lyrics

Hi, buckaroos, Scamp Walker time again.
Gonna try to slide one by once more.
Don't matter how ya do it.
Just do it like you know what your doing
Besides, we been down this road one before...

[Chorus]
Just gettin' by on gettin' by's my stock and trade
Livin' it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces where ever they fall
Just lettin' it roll lettin' the high times carry the load
I'm livin' my life easy come easy go.

Income tax overdue.
I think she is too.
Been busted, I'll probably get busted somemore.
But I'll catch it all later.
Can't let it stop me now,
Besides, I've been down this road once before...

Last week i was thinkin,
It's record time again,
And I can see Ol' Steve Boy pacing the floor.
Oh, Steve, don't ya worry.
Something's bound to come out,
Besides, we been down this road once before...

Ahh buckaroos, Scamp Walker time again
I'm trying to slide one by you once more
Don't matter how you do it, you see, just do it like you know it
I've been down this road once or twice before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
Just living my life easy come, easy go

Last week I was thinking, it's record time again
And I could see Mike making faces in this floor
Ahh Mike, don't you worry, something's bound to come out
Besides, I've been down this road once before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
Just living my life easy come, easy go

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
Just living my life easy come, easy go

Income tax overdue, now I think she is too
Been busted and I'll probably get busted some more
But I'll catch it all later, can't let 'em stop me now
I've been down this road once or twice before

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
Just living my life easy come, easy go

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trade, living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
Just living my life easy come, easy go
Living my life easy come, easy go

OK buckaroos, Scamp Walker time again
I'm trying to slide one by you once more
Don't matter how you do it
Just do it like you know it

Just gettin' by on gettin' bys my stock in trad
Living it day to day
Pickin' up the pieces wherever they fall
Just letting it roll, letting the high times carry the low
I'm just living my life easy come, easy go

Last week I was thinking, its record time again
And I could see Mike making those faces
Ah Mike, don't you worry, something's bound to come out
Besides, I've been down this road once or twice before

Income tax is overdue, I think she is too
Been busted and I'll probably get busted some more
But I'll catch it all later, can't let em stop me now
I've been down this road once or twice before
