This mornin’ when I woke up
Man, I had a bad backache, and my head felt like it took new form
Last night I stuck an ice pack where I sat on the maniac
2000 pounds of muscle and horn

I remember smilin' as we kicked up mud
Out in the bright lights and I recall
A-cussin’ when I lost control
And he sent me on a high flight

Hey, I don't do this for the money
I don't do it for the fame
It's cos he threw me to the ground all bloody
That's the reason I can't walk away

I stumbled out to my pick-up
My joints popped in ten different places
One I never knew I had
I'm out here on the highway
My one track mind sticks in replay
And I start to get real mad
Seems I've lost track of all the buckles and the big checks
But I remember every time I've landed in a pile of B.S

Hey, I don't do this for the money
I don't do it for the fame
It's cos he threw me to the ground all bloody
That's the reason I can't walk away

Hey, I don't do this for the money
I don't do it for the fame
It's cause he threw me to the ground all bloody
That's the reason I can't walk away
I can't walk away
I can't walk away
I can't walk away
