[Verse 1]
I looked for trouble and I found it, son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
I try to run but I don't think I can
You make one move and you're a dead man, friend

[Chorus]
I ain't living long like this
I can't live at all like this, can I baby?
He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back
Then left me freezing on a steel rail rack
I can't sleep at all in the jailhouse, baby
I ain't living long like this

[Verse 2]
Grew up in Houston off of Wayside Drive
Son of a car hop in some all night dive
Dad drove a stock car to an early death
All I remember was a drunk man's breath

[Chorus]
I ain't living long like this
I can't live at all like this, can I baby?
We know the story how the wheel goes 'round
Don't let 'em take you to the man downtown
They got 'em all in the jailhouse, ain't they baby
I ain't living long like this
I can't live at all like this, can I baby?
