Paid by the Mile

[00:11.38] If I only had a dime for every lie on my face
[00:16.57] I'd buy a drink for every fool in this place
[00:20.52] Giving you my two cents
[00:22.87] Take it all that I've been through
[00:25.22] Can you dig it or leave it?
[00:27.57] Can you tell me what to do?
[00:29.30] I'll take my time, I'm goin' south
[00:34.67] Cause I only got paid by the mile
[00:41.54] Said if I had a nickel for every song I tried to write
[00:46.56] I'd cut a cheque to every underdog who stays in the fight
[00:50.37] Yeah the one thing that I know, I'm hungry every night
[00:55.31] It ain't dawn till it's over, it ain't over till it's right
[00:59.30] Well I take my time, well I'm goin' south
[01:04.03] Cause I only got paid by the mile
[01:11.32] Every night, every show
[01:15.78] Every dream, comes and goes
[01:19.93] Every trouble, I just smile
[01:27.23] If I only got paid by the mile
[01:31.94] If I only got paid by the mile
[02:04.44] If I had a silver dollar for each night I could not sleep
[02:09.70] I'd pay the tab of every man that's ever had to face the beat
[02:13.59] Yeah if you ain't got the hook, we'll string you up like bee
[02:18.59] Those miles keep on coming, life don't stop and weep
[02:22.17] Well I take my time, well I'm goin' south
[02:27.46] Cause I only got paid by the mile
[02:31.33] Well I take my time, well I'm goin' south
