Hustle and Cuss Lyrics
knock on the door
and the door knocks back
the joke never go no further than that
fire goes back inside the match
back down the stack
and we hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
and we hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must you muscle and fuss?
you muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
when we were young
a different kind of fun
playing in the mud
it meant something else
now we hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss
and we hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must we muscle and fuss?
you muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
you're easy to fool and easy to catch
and i don't know if i want you to
match my bets
and we hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
and we hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must you muscle and fuss?
hustle and cuss
muscle and fuss
muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust
and the door knocks back
the joke never go no further than that
fire goes back inside the match
back down the stack
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must you muscle and fuss?
you muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
a different kind of fun
playing in the mud
it meant something else
now we hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must we muscle and fuss?
you muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
and i don't know if i want you to
match my bets
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
lick on the dust
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
hustle and cuss
hustle and cuss and lick on the dust
must you muscle and fuss?
hustle and cuss
muscle and fuss
muscle and fuss
and lick on the dust

Not sure about this. I can't believe nobody's commented, this is a great song.
I can only think of an intepretation for the second verse "when we were young/ a different kind of fun/playing in the mud/it meant something else" I think it's about sexualisation. You lose your innocence and get a dirty mind, basically.
The Hustle & Cuss is about karma. The basic premiss of karma is for every action there is a reaction 'knock on the door and the door knocks back'. Its saying that in this life if you give shit (hustle & cuss) you get shit (lick on the dust). It's like so many of their songs seemingly simple yet profound.
