If It Ain't One Thing It's Another
Writer: Jimi T. Hall

If it ain't one thing it's another past due bills or my mother
Calling to tell me I'm late
That my sister's doing great and how I should be more like my brother
Lord, if it ain't one thing it's another

The IRS office called me just the other day
Said they had a hard time trackin' me down
That if I don't start paying my back taxes
The police will pick me up and take me downtown

If it ain't one thing it's another past due bills or my mother
Calling to tell me I'm late
That my sister's doing great and how I should be more like my brother
Lord, if it ain't one thing it's another

Well, my sister's she's a housewife, my brother sells insurance
I'm a guitar player looking for a gig
I don't know why it's so hard living what you love
I just wanna sing and play underneath the stars above

If it ain't one thing it's another past due bills or my mother
Calling to tell me I'm late
That my sister's doing great and how I should be more like my brother

Lord, if it ain't one thing it's another

Lord, if it ani't one thing it's another
