What Do You Want From Yourself?

Happy go lucky in the afternoon I can do anything I want when I'm with you It's how I spent my 37 years around the sun In 33 more I'll be an old woman Sitting out the back with a beer in my hand I like the cold of the can What do you want from yourself? What do I want? I want to be what I wanted to be in 1993 When it would snow a dozen times in January And we'd grab our sleds and go to Albemarle and we would fly down Fly down Fly down When do you learn that your skin's not as thick as you thought? When all you thought you had you lost? The mornings start to slip away Sooner or later you're gonna catch yourself in the glass Looking hard-lived and middle class You smile at the cracks in the pane What do you want from yourself, what do you want? What do I want? I want to be what I wanted to be in 1993 When it would snow a dozen times in January And we'd grab our sleds and go to Albemarle And we would fly down Fly down Fly It all comes down to who got a head start And who's running with a bum leg The coffee's hot now How do you like your eggs, sir? Do you like eggs? If nobody asks you - do you have a choice? Your word's your will's your way's your voice I'm tryin' to hear you through the noise What do you want from yourself? What do I want? I want to be what I wanted to be in 1993 When it would snow a dozen times in January And we'd grab our sleds and go to Albemarle And we would fly down Fly down Fly Happy go lucky in the afternoon I can be anything I want when I'm with you It's where I'll spend my days until they're done
