Verse 1
Well I was born in the gutter, raised on sin,
Learned real quick the devil always grins.
Ain’t no sunshine on this blood-soaked track,
Just whiskey on my breath and a knife in my back.
Chorus
Life ain’t Mister Rogers, it don’t come with a smile,
It’ll break your heart and drag you through the miles.
Ain’t no neat little lessons, no neighborly song,
Out here it’s whiskey and trouble that keeps you strong.
Verse 2
Got a sawed-off shotgun, ridin’ in my truck,
Every mile I drive feels like runnin’ outta luck.
Police lights flashin’, hounds on the trail,
But I’d rather die fast than rot in a cell.
Chorus
Life ain’t Mister Rogers, it don’t come with a smile,
It’ll break your heart and drag you through the miles.
Ain’t no neat little lessons, no neighborly song,
Out here it’s whiskey and trouble that keeps you strong.
Verse 3
Well I howl at the moon with the meth-heads and fiends,
Rust in my veins and fire in my dreams.
This outlaw highway don’t give no rest,
Just a coffin-shaped bed when I lay down my chest.
Chorus
Life ain’t Mister Rogers, it don’t come with a smile,
It’ll break your heart and drag you through the miles.
Ain’t no neat little lessons, no neighborly song,
Out here it’s whiskey and trouble that keeps you strong
Br
So light me a smoke, pour the bourbon deep,
I’ll dance with the reaper while the angels weep.
And when my story’s over, don’t you sing me no hymn,
Just crank up the feedback and let the chaos begin.
Chorus
Life ain’t Mister Rogers, it don’t come with a smile,
It’ll break your heart and drag you through the miles.
Ain’t no neat little lessons, no neighborly song,
Out here it’s whiskey and trouble that keeps you strong.
Life Ain’t Mister Rogers
Life Ain’t Mister Rogers
Life Ain’t Mister Rogers

Even if 1/2 the audience doesn't know who mr rogers is, they should identify with the sentiment. kind of like the saying - life's a bitch then you die :)

Well, I'm no kid, but even I've heard of Mr Rogers, though we never saw him here in Australia.
Bitter edge to this that I think will be very popular. Strong lyric. The music is good, though I'd like it to build more as the song progresses, but hey you can only guide Suno you don't control every aspect.
Nice work Elvis.
