[Verse 1]
Too much to do, not enough time
Phone in my pocket, honey-do line
Got all the tools in the back of my truck
If it breaks, well baby, I’ll fix it up
I got the skills, I know my way
I can make a mess and clean it today
I’ll do it myself, save a few bucks
(That’s right) if I’m honest, I’m outta luck
[Pre-Chorus]
Paid man once, he came back late
Left one board bent and the gate don’t gate
So I shook my head, said, “Nah, I’m fine”
I’ll burn a whole weekend, one job at a time
[Chorus]
Too much to do, not enough time
I’ll get it done, I’ll make it mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(Sure enough) I’ll do it myself
Too much to do, not enough time
If it comes out crooked, that’s still mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(Watch me now) I’ll do it myself
[Verse 2]
Got a tape measure, duct tape too
Three half-finished plans and a coffee gone cold blue
Wrench in my hand, sweat on my brow
I was born for the fix, don’t ask me how
Neighbors look over like, “You need a hand?”
I grin real wide, “No, I got a plan”
Might take me longer, might cost me pride
But I’m the one who’ll say, “I built that right”
[Pre-Chorus]
Paid man once, he came back late
Left one board bent and the gate don’t gate
So I shook my head, said, “Nah, I’m fine”
I’ll burn a whole weekend, one job at a time
[Chorus]
Too much to do, not enough time
I’ll get it done, I’ll make it mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(Sure enough) I’ll do it myself
Too much to do, not enough time
If it comes out crooked, that’s still mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(Watch me now) I’ll do it myself
[Bridge]
If it’s wrong, I’ll laugh and fix
Square that corner, tighten that hinge
I’m the boss, the crew, the blame
Same old hands, same old name
(Yeah) call me stubborn, call me tough
I’d rather learn than pay for luck
[Final Chorus]
Too much to do, not enough time
I’ll get it done, I’ll make it mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(That’s the way) I’ll do it myself
Too much to do, not enough time
If it comes out crooked, that’s still mine
I’ll do it myself, I’ll do it myself
(Watch me now) I’ll do it myself
