Keep It Between the Lines - Sturgill Simpson

Don’t turn mailboxes into baseballs

Don’t get busted selling at seventeen

Most thoughts deserve about two or three more

Motor oil is motor oil

Just keep the engine clean

Keep your eyes on the prize

Everything will be fine

Long as you stay in school

Stay off the hard stuff

And keep between the lines

Don’t burn two lanterns at the same time

No ship out on the water will pay your rent

'Cause you live and you learn

Sometimes you get burned

When your get out done got up

Walked out the door and went

Do as I say

Don’t do as I’ve done

It don’t have to be

Like a father, like his son

Don’t let them try to upsell you

There’s a reason they make chocolate and vanilla, too

If there’s any doubt, then there is no doubt

The gut don’t never lie

And the only word you’ll ever need to know in life is «why»

Keep your head out of the clouds

And remember to be kind

And just stay in school

Stay off the drugs

And keep between the lines

(Don't, don’t sweat the small stuff)

(Can't sweat the small stuff)

(Don't sweat the small stuff)
