I Can'T Believe I Keep Saying Stuff Like That

I Can’t Believe I Keep Saying Stuff Like That By Elton Camp I won’t have any trouble relating to the regular Joe After all, I only have two hundred fifty million or so Among the filthy rich, I am not even close to there I’m only about one-fourth way to being a billionaire NASCAR doesn’t really hold a lot of interest to me But of couple of my friends own whole teams you see Sometimes I forget & make some rather unwise cracks Like saying that my wife drives a couple of Cadillacs And when I said that it’s people that I like to fire Looking back, I wish had, instead, substituted hire But probably the worst that I have messed up yet Was in offering to make a ten thousand buck bet I mean not to speak of wealth, but can’t stick to it Sometimes I wonder if it’s the devil made me do it I surely do wish that to nobody it had occurred That I am as rich as Thurston Howell the Third
