[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't know where
This dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
Guess I keep a gamblin'
Lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
It's easier that just a waitin' around to die
[Verse 2]
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
Move down to Tennessee
It's easier that just a waitin' around to die
[Verse 3]
I came of age and found a girl
In a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
I tried to kill the pain
I bought some booze and hopped the train
Seemed easier than just waitin' around to die
[Verse 4]
A friend said he knew
Where some easy money was
We robbed a man, and, brother did we fly
The posse they caught up to me
Drug me back to Muskogee
It's two long years just a waitin' around to die
[Verse 5]
No I'm out of prison
I got me a friend at last
He don't steal, or drink, or cheat, or lie
His name's Codeine
He's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around and die
[Verse 6]
No I'm out of prison
I got me a friend at last
He don't steal, or drink, or cheat, or lie
His name's Codeine
He's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around and die
Together we're gonna wait around and die
