I never had a problem with drinkin' 'Til I ran out of booze Never had a problem with thinking 'Til I started watching the news I never had a problem with the rhythm of life Groovin' on down the line Singing my songs on the backbeat baby Swinging along in my own time I've paid all of my dues, livin' the life I choose, I got no one to prove I've got nothing to loose, got nothing to loose I've never had a problem with lying Couldn't lay straight in bed Never had a problem with faking Crooked as a dog's hind leg I never had a problem with being the clown Always coping it sweet Making people laugh was my joke baby Didn't need a wig or big flat feet I've paid all of my dues Never wore out my dancing shoes I've got nothin' to prove, I've got nothing I've never had a problem with loosing 'Til it was my turn to cry Never had a problem with leaving This is me waving bye bye Never hat a problem with the girlies I've known Was just me lovin' my way If they started lovin' me too much baby I'd kiss em and then run away I've paid all of my dues, livin' the life I choose I got no more to prove, I got nothing to loose
