[00:17.417]I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
[00:25.119]Like ridin' around on railcars and workin' long days
[00:32.877]Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
[00:38.876]Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
[01:02.133]Call it one drink too many
[01:04.384]Call it pride of a man
[01:10.687]But it don't make no difference if you sit or you stand
[01:18.737]'Cause they both end in trouble and start with a grin
[01:24.671]Yeah they both end in trouble and start with a grin
[01:30.921]We do it over and over and over again
[01:38.723]We do it over and over and over again
[01:48.224]Oh-oh
[01:50.375]Oh-oh
[01:52.876]Oh-oh-oh-oh
[01:57.179]Oh-oh
[01:59.430]Oh-oh
[02:01.579]Oh-oh-oh-oh
[02:06.132]Oh-oh
[02:08.332]Oh-oh
[02:08.533]Oh-oh-oh-oh
[02:10.484]Oh-oh
[02:13.335]I know there's California Oklahoma
[02:18.987]And all of the places I ain't ever been to but
[02:23.288]Down in the valley with
[02:25.689]Whiskey rivers
[02:27.910]These are the places you will find me hidin'
[02:32.814]These are the places I will always go
[02:37.416]These are the places I will always go
[02:41.218]I am on my way
[02:43.230]I am on my way
[02:45.780]I am on my way back to where I started
[03:01.632]Oh-oh
[03:03.075]Oh-oh-oh-oh
[03:06.027]Oh-oh
[03:10.027]One more for the stars and their eyes in the walls
[03:14.227]I hail your face and then I saw you standing out
[03:23.642]I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
[03:32.843]You saw me crossing the valley and you came in
[03:36.983]Look at the sign on the door and it reads to me
[03:41.588]Just like the grass and the sign when you walked in
[03:46.738]Oh-oh
[04:03.381]I am on my way
[04:05.582]I am on my way
[04:08.034]I am on my way back to where I started
[04:13.785]California Oklahoma
[04:18.087]And all of the places I ain't ever been to but
[04:22.389]Down in the valley with
[04:24.739]Whiskey rivers
[04:27.089]These are the places you will find me hidin'
[04:31.941]These are the places I will always go
[04:36.642]These are the places I will always go
[04:44.743]So I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
[04:53.064]Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
