I Can't Complain

The taxman came knockin' on my door,

I said I already gave, he said he wanted some more

Then my house burned down on a hot summer day,

When I saw the smoke clear, didn't know what to say,

But come what may, I guess I'll be ok,

I can't complain

Got me a broken leg, actin' like a fool,

Jumped off my balcony and missed the pool

Now my doctor's tellin' me that I'm eatin' too much fat

Sayin' high cholesterol just ain't where it's at

They ask me any day, tell you what I say

I can't complain

My car's a lemom now, it's just broken down,

For the 100th time, I can't get across town

I never got invited to a Grammy show,

If my luck ever changes, I really don't know

Ask me any day, tell you what I say,

I can't complain

I can't complain

I can't complain, no no

It's how you look at it, your attitude

You can't get through life without gratitude

You can always make a list of what 's going wrong,

But your list of blessings will be 2 as long

Don't know if this song will ever make the chart,

Don't know what machines are gonna fall apart

But I know for certain I can talk about the blues

One thing's for sure, you know I paid my dues

Ask me any day, tell you what I say,

I can't complain

I can't complain

I can't complain, no no
