They tried to tell me I wouldn't listen Fought my way to the bottom of the pile I've been walking down the side of this highway Just had to do it my way Held on to grudges Carried that load around for a million miles Tired of being alone and angry Looks like the sky is about to cry Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot When am I gonna change my ways? Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot Looking for a place to lay my head No shelter from the rain They tried to tell me I was stubborn Ain't no woman gonna cramp my style I've been walking down the side of this highway Don't care what they may say I've lied to judges Hard to do when they're looking dead at your file Tired of being alone and angry Looks like the sky is about to cry Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot When am I gonna change my ways? Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot Looking for a place to lay my head No shelter from the rain Bright stare on my face I could sleep for days They all make me crazy Can't stop my head from shaking Silk on my skin Dark clouds blow me in The rain can't wash away where I've been The rain can't wash away where I've been Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot When am I gonna change my ways? Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot Looking for a place to lay my head No shelter from the rain Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot When am I gonna change my ways? Oh my goodness gracious, thanks a lot Looking for a place to lay my head No shelter from the rain
