Sangtekst: Robert Earl Keen. The Rose Hotel. Something I Do.

I am the king of burning daylight, and holdin' my own
I've been doin', alright, leaving well enough alone
My Daddy told me, I was lazy, My momma said, I love you too

I kinda Like just, Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do
I kinda Like just, Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do

I read the sports page, make some coffee, Turn the TV on
I feed the gold Fish, fix a sandwich, ignore the telephone
My baby tells me, your so lazy, My baby say, we love you too


I kinda Like just, Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do
*background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
Its Something that I do

I got a cabin, and a campfire, stars up in the sky "sky" echoes
I've got a ummm, good hearted woman, I think I'm getting by
I tell my baby, I am the ?barritz?, My baby says you love me too




I kinda Like just Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do
*background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
Its Something that I do

Alright


........

I love a clear day, a open highway, a lonesome fiddle tune
I love a party, with friends and family, napping in the afternoon
I might be lazy, I ain't crazy, I love my baby, She loves me too

I kinda Like, just Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do

I kinda Like, *background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
just Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do

I kinda Like *background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
just Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do

*background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
Its Something that I do

*background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
Its Something that I do

I kinda Like, just Doin' Nothing, Its Something that I do
*background* (He kinda Likes just Doin' Nothing),
Its Something that I do

alright
