[Verse 1]
Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
I guess I keep a-gamblin', lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
Ah it's easier than just a-waitin' 'round 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, she headed down to Tennessee
Ah it's easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die
[Verse 3]
Well I came of age and I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and she hit it on the sly
I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and hopped a train
It seemed easier than just a-waitin' 'round to die
[Verse 4]
And 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, drug me back to Muskogee
And it's two long years, just a-waitin' 'round to die
[Instrumental interlude]
