    Lyrics:
    Bank owns the house
    Bank owns the land
    Boss owns the truck and the hammer in my hands
    Ex got the kids and half of my check
    Other half goes to the IRS, cuckoo
    Beers on the hood
    Cars on the blocks
    Carburetor parts still sittin’ in the box
    Wrenching that wrench
    Stripping that bolt
    Busting ’up a knuckle make a man go,
    Cuckoo
    This world keeps shaking me, breaking me, taking me, making me
    Damn near crazy as a loon, Cuckoo
    Out here out there out pulling my hair out burn out a little too soon
    Runnin’ from a train, gunnin’ that race
    Chasing that carrot on a pole
    One more thing in a long line of the things I can’t control
    Doc says hi, gives me a pill
    Shoots me a shot, sends me the bill
    Life is a road and it’s all uphill
    If one don’t drive you then the other one will,
    Cuckoo…
    This world keeps shaking me, breaking me, taking me, making me
    Damn near crazy as a loon, Cuckoo
    Out here out there out pulling my hair out burn out a little too soon
    Runnin’ from a train, gunnin’ that race
    Chasing that carrot on a pole
    One more thing in a long line of the things I can’t control
    Cuckoo
    Sun goes up, sun goes down
    We all wind up six feet in the ground
    (That’s right)
    Sun goes up, sun goes down
    We all wind up six feet in the ground
    Sun goes up, sun goes down
    We all wind up six feet in the ground
    Sun goes up, sun goes down
    We all wind up six feet in the ground
    Don’t know much, tell ya what I do
    Sooner or later we’re all gonna go
    Cuckoo
    This world keeps shaking me, breaking me, taking me, making me
    Damn near crazy as a loon, cuckoo
    Out here out there out pulling my hair out burn out little too soon
    Dead last place, gunnin’ that race
    Chasing that carrot on a pole
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
    Oh yeah
    Oh yeah
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
    One more thing in a long line of things I can’t control
