chorus: I know things you read about like how to filet a speckled trout, how to dress a wild boar and how to lay floor. I'm not saying I'm a millionaire but i can build a spiral stair, no PHD I ain't got much clout but i know things you read about. V1. I got two hands with scrapes and scars, they've poured cement and twisted on rebar, changed timing belts on foreign cars, held babies and saved hurt birds. Got two feet they are my slaves, they always go right where i say, driven surfboards down giant waves and they can't even read a word. (chorus) V2. got two eyes they see clear as day, they've seen some things along the way seen people die and babies laid right in front of me. got two ears, heard laughs and screams, they ring a bit from loud machines, still work okay if I keep em clean just like my mom told me. (chorus) V3. I love the way you look at me when you find out I ain't as dumb as I seem, I'm just like you and your just like me so lets just get along. I love you and hope you love me too, thats why i do the things I do, it isn't worth saying if it ain't true so lets all just sing this song. I know things you read about like how to filet a speckled trout and how to dress a wild boar and how to lay a tile floor. I'm not saying I'm a millionaire but i can build a spiral stair, no PHD I ain't got much clout but I know things you read about. Yes I know things you read about.
