Sometimes I don't know where |
[00:39.38] |
This stony road is taking me |
[00:45.60] |
Sometimes I don't know the reason why |
[00:49.35] |
So I guess I'll keep gambling |
[00:51.98] |
Lots of booze and lots of rambling |
[00:57.16] |
Well, it's easier than just waiting around to die |
[01:12.09] |
Well, one time, friends |
[01:13.26] |
I had a ma, I even had a pa |
[01:19.20] |
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried |
[01:23.99] |
She told him to take care of me |
[01:27.18] |
And headed down to Tennessee |
[01:31.68] |
Well, it's easier than just waiting around to die |
[01:49.08] |
Then I became of age |
[01:50.81] |
And I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar |
[01:56.60] |
She cleaned me out and she hit it on the sly |
[02:01.25] |
Well, I tried to kill the pain |
[02:03.69] |
I bought some wine, I hopped a train |
[02:08.84] |
Well, it was easier than just waiting around to die |
[02:26.30] |
Then a friend said he knew |
[02:28.55] |
Where some easy money was |
[02:33.83] |
We robbed a man and brother, did we fly |
[02:38.52] |
But the posse caught up with me |
[02:41.38] |
And drugged me back to Muskogee |
[02:46.23] |
And now it's two long years, just waiting around to die |
[03:23.35] |
Now I'm out of prison |
[03:25.80] |
And I got me a friend at last |
[03:31.14] |
He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie |
[03:35.69] |
His name is Codeine |
[03:38.18] |
And he's the nicest thing I've seen |
[03:43.24] |
And together, we're gonna wait around to die |
