Six of One

Nelson-Hunter

I got up this morning and I went right back to bed
I got up this morning and I really went right back to bed
The dream I was having, it wouldn't let go of my head.

I dreamed I was dancing on a penthouse window sill
Forty five stories in the air with a girl named Lil
If you're going to wake, babe, I might be dancing there still.

Well, six of one, half a dozen of the rest now
Six of one, half a dozen of the rest
Why do you complain when you know I'm doing my best?

I bet on a pony called Loser for to place and show
I bet on a pony called Loser for to place and show
Well, that horse ran backwards as fast as he could go.

I bet on another called Sleepy Time Girl to win
I was playing a hunch, I bet a sawbuck double and a fin
And that's twenty five dollars I won't ever see again.

Well, six of one, half a dozen of the rest now
Six of one, half a dozen of the rest
Why do you complain when you know I'm doing my best?

Took a dog for a walk, write how I've been wrong
I took a dog for a walk, write another line for this song
Well, I could use the exercise, this one's already too long.

Some of these days I'm gonna park my car in your space
When you drive up, baby, I just wanna see your face
My busted up Chevy in your BMW place.

Well, six of one, half a dozen of the rest now
Six of one, half a dozen of the rest
Why do you complain when you know I'm doing my best?

I got up this morning and I went right back to bed
I got up this morning and I'm really right back to bed
The dream I was having, it wouldn't let go of my head.

I dreamed I was dancing on a penthouse window sill
Forty five stories in the air with a girl named Lil
If you're going away, babe, I might be dancing there still.

Well, six of one, half a dozen of the rest now
Six of one, half a dozen of the rest
Why do you complain when you know I'm doing my best?
