Been wound up tighter than a banjo string
price of gas groceries and all those things
they sound little till you add 'em all up
then you really feel the crunch.
man, I've had enough.

I need to chill, give it a rest
get down to the lake with a full ice chest
and chill, and let a cold corona
lift this world right off my shoulders
climb in the water, steak on the grill
I think its way past time for me to chill
just chill.

This morning 65 was a parking lot
bumper to bumper just start and stop
sometimes I think we're like a bunch of rats
getting caught in our own traps
well, I say to hell with that.

I need to chill give it a rest
get down to the lake with a full ice chest
and chill, and let a cold corona
lift this world right off my shoulders
climb in the water, steak on the grill
I think its way past time for me to chill
just chill.

Before we go to therapy and take another pill
we just need to chill, give it a rest
lay down in a hammock and take a deep breath
and chill, it don't cost a dime
to reel in your troubles and just unwind
cork in the water and time to kill
you can't tell me this ain't a great way to chill
just chill

Man, I need to chill.
just chill.
