Well it was way after dark so I knew my wife and kids were waitin' E

And I guess I took a left where I generally take a right D

Well I woke up in the county jail across the line in Laredo

I had a headache and the deputy was a starin' at me through the door

He said "how you got across that river alive I don't know,
E A
But you wife just made your bail so now your in her debt for sure."

Now my wife she called my boss and she lied so I got my job back
E A
And the boys down at the plant they whisper and stare at me
D A
Well my wife she finds a lot of little jobs to keep me on the right track

That's a small price to pay for a week of living dangerously
