Now this man down at the used car lot | |
Tried to sell me four wheels and a trunk. | |
I said, "man, there is no engine!", | |
He said, "the engine's just a bunch of junk. | |
You don't need no engine to go downhill | |
And i could plainly see, that that's the direction | |
You're headed in", and he handed me the keyes. | |
(i said) no deal; you can't sell this stuff to me | |
No deal, i'm going back to tennesee | |
Well, i went to a doctor of the highest order, | |
He said i couldn't have a drink for a year. | |
One glass of wine on my birthday | |
If my birthday wasn't too very near. | |
Lord, he must have put me in a state of shock | |
'cause i made it for about two weeks; | |
Then he sent me a bill | |
That knocked me flat off the wagon | |
And back down on my feet. | |
When true love knocked upon my door | |
She'd just barely turned fifteen | |
And i was a little bit nervous | |
If you know just what i mean. | |
But i've heard somewhere | |
That true love conquers all | |
And i figured that was that | |
Then i started having dreams 'bout | |
Being chased out of town | |
Wearing nothing but my cowboy hat. | |
Well, i come through this life a stumbler, my friends | |
I expect to die that way | |
It could be twenty years from now | |
It could be most any day. | |
But if there is no whiskey and women, lord, | |
Behind them heavenly doors | |
I'm gonna take my chances down below, | |
And of that you can be sure. |
