๐Ÿ“œ Lyrics

Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
But I guess I keep a-gamblin', lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
Well, it's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die

Ah one time friends I had a ma, I even had a pa
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
She told him to take care of me, headed down to Tennessee
It's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die

I came of age and I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
Well I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and hopped a train
It seemed easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die

Then a friend said he knew where some easy money was
We robbed a man and brother did we fly
But the posse caught up with me and drug me back to Muskogee
And it's two long years, a-waitin' 'round to die

Ah but now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
Ah his name is codeine, he's the nicest thing I've seen
Well together we're gonna wait around and die
Well together we're gonna wait around and die
