[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I don't know the reason why
So I guess I'll keep gambling, lots of booze and lots of rambling
Well, it's easier than just waitin' around to die
[Verse 2]
Well, 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 take care of me, she headed down to Tennessee
Well, it's easier than just waitin' around to die
[Verse 3]
Then I came of age and I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and she hit it on the sly
Well, I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and I hopped a train
Well, it's easier than just waitin' around to die
[Verse 4]
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 Muskogee
And now, it's two long years, waitin' around to die
