[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
I been down and out, now I'm up again
When I roll the dice everybody wins
Like a cannonball moving down the track
Baby's on her way, she ain't coming back
(Never coming back, never coming back)
Baby's on her way

[Verse 2]
Shooting out the lights and the smoke alarms
Keep your fingers crossed, I'm a lucky charm
Like a cannonball moving down the track
Baby's on her way, she ain't coming back
(Never coming back, never coming back)
Baby's on her way, yeah
(Never coming back, never coming back)
Baby's on her way

[Chorus]
Like it or not I don't give a damn
Lord have mercy, I'm a self made man
(Oh, self made man)
(Oh, sеlf made man)
[Verse 3]
I can't let it go, gotta do or die
For an undеrdog, I been riding high
Gonna juice it up in my Pontiac
Baby's on her way, she ain't coming back
(Never coming back, never coming back)
Baby's on her way, yeah
(Never coming back, never coming back)
Baby's on her way

[Chorus]
Like it or not, I don't give a damn
Lord have mercy, I'm a self-made man
I got a plan up top and two strong hands
Lord have mercy, I'm a self made man
(Oh, self made man)
(Oh, self made man)

[Slide Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Like it or not I don't give a damn
Lord have mercy, I'm a self made man
I got a plan up top and two strong hands
Lord have mercy, I'm a self made man
(Oh, self made man)
(Oh, self made man)
(Oh, self made man)
