Ways + Means

The best I ever did with my life

Said just three honest words to you

Three droplets in a pail of lies

Three gems among the alibis

Yes, I know the ways and means I are, Ma

I know the ways and means I are

The best I ever did with my love

Said your name on the microphone

You heard it at the restaurant

Cashed out and brought your tips on home

Yes, I know the ways and means I are, Ma

The best I ever did with my bucks

Put two down on your horse to show

She lost but just kept racing ?round

Kept running ?til the sun went down
