Just What I Do Lyrics

Trick Pony Just What I Do

Songwriters: Ira Lee Dean;Bryan Keith Burns

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Hit it!
One, two, three, four

Jesse James was an outlaw man
He was always breakin' the law
Six guns firing from both his hands
Fastest you ever saw

Did he do it for the money
Or was it for the fame?
Finally somebody asked him
"Jesse, why you wanna rob them trains?"
And Jessie said

"It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the meanest hombre you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do, it's just what I do"

Well Orville Wight set his sights
High up in the air
And him and Wilbur worked day and night
He didn't seem to care

Well the town folk said if you were meant to fly
God would have given you wings
What makes you want to spend all of your time
Building that flying machine
And Orville said

"It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the first flight boy you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do, it's just what I do", oh yeah

Well Picasso painted them pictures
There was beauty in every stroke
When asked about his motivation
He said, "I think it's 'bout time you should know"

It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
Just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
I'm the workinest painter that you ever saw
'Cause lately I ain't gettin' no lovin' at all
It's just what I do, it's just what I do, it's just what I do
It's just what I do when I can't get no lovin'
