A Fools Hill Lyrics by Mark Stephen Jones

Self Made Man

2007

[Verse 1]
I went to work this morning
After staying out all night
Boss man said I was a sorry sack of seeds
And then without a warning
He said I wasn't right
For the job or the company
So I headed on down Seventeen
In my Coupe de Ville
Thinking up lies all the way home
I pulled into the driveway
I was ready for the spill
Oh, but Jenny and the kids were gone
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But there’s a way that I can get through it
All I gotta do is
[Chorus]
Roll down my window when the man walks right up to me
And I buy another hundred dollars worth of misery
Put the cruise control on my Coupe de Ville
'Cause it's a long way down
It’s a long way down
It's a long way down
A fools hill
[Verse 2]
I got money in my pocket
I got a drink between my legs
I got my pistol underneath the seat
I check the rear-view mirror
Light another cigarette
Then I pull on to a dark back street
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I hope I don't see anybody I know
I hope nobody I know sees me
[Chorus]
And I just roll down my window when the man walks right up to me
And I buy another hundred dollars worth of misery
Put the cruise control on my Coupe de Ville
'Cause it's a long way down
It's a long way down
It's a long way down
A fools hill
[Bridge]
All my friends say, "Man, you've got a problem"
They don’t know what they’re talking about
I'm the only one who’s keeping it together
I'm the only one who's figured it all out
[Chorus]
I just roll down my window when the man walks right up to me
And I buy another hundred dollars worth of misery
Put the cruise control on my Coupe de Ville
'Cause it’s a long way down
Man, I gotta turn this thing around
It's a long way down
A fools hill
