Dysfunctional Hellraiser

V5

[Verse 1] Three straight days on the clock Chasing bills and broken luck I smelled like hell, I’ll tell the truth Came home mean and halfway drunk Flies came in from miles around Like they knew my name by heart Then I met a box-made queen In the thrift store back-lot dark [Pre-Chorus] She was just as wrecked as me Same hard laugh, same hungry eyes I said, “Come on, girl, get in” We drove that rust heap through the night [Chorus] Dysfunctional hellraiser That’s our name, that’s our pride Dysfunctional hellraiser We made our whole bad life Raise a glass to the chaos Raise a fist to the crime Dysfunctional hellraiser Baby, we survived [Verse 2] Moved out to the country road To a busted trailer shell One tire sunk in red clay mud And the door that wouldn’t shut We fought the law, we fought the week We fought the bottles and the heat Aggravated battery Public intoxication [Pre-Chorus] Then the cuffs came clicking fast Then the county took our shine We got out with harder hearts And a brand-new reason to lie [Chorus] Dysfunctional hellraiser That’s our name, that’s our pride Dysfunctional hellraiser We made our whole bad life Raise a glass to the chaos Raise a fist to the crime Dysfunctional hellraiser Baby, we survived [Bridge] Eight kids running wild behind us Little outlaws in a row Every one of them learned the same How to break, how to go Now the courthouse knows their names And the town keeps count again But I look at that crooked crew And I say it all with a grin [Final Chorus] Dysfunctional hellraiser That’s our name, that’s our pride Dysfunctional hellraiser We made our whole bad life Raise a glass to the chaos Raise a fist to the crime Dysfunctional hellraiser Baby, we survived Dysfunctional hellraiser Ain’t no shame in our line Dysfunctional hellraiser Proud as hell tonight
