^AmSometimes I don't know where... this dirt^Dmy road is taking me ^AmSometimes I don't even know the reason ^Emwhy ^AmBut I guess I'll keep on ramblin'..., Lots of b^Dmooze and lots of gamblin' It's ^Ameasier than just ^Emwaitin around to ^Amdie.

^AmOnce I had a Ma..., I ^Dmeven had a Pa H^Ame beat her with a belt once 'cause she^Em cried ^AmShe told him to take care of me..., Headed ^Dmdown to Tennessee It wa^Ams easier 'n just ^Emwaitin around to ^Amdie.

^AmI came of age and I met a girl.., in ^Dma Tuscaloosa bar ^AmShe cleaned me out and hid it on the^Em sly ^AmI tried to kill the pain.., I bought some^Dm wine and hopped a train Seeme^Amd easier than jus^Emt waiting around ^Amto die

^AmMy friend said he knew where some ^Dmeasy money was ^AmWe robbed a man and brother did we^Em fly ^AmThe police caught up with me..., drug me ^Dmback to muskogee Now i^Amt's two long years of ^Emwaitng around to ^Amdie.

^AmNow I'm out of prison..., I got me a f^Dmriend at last ^AmHe don't drink, or steal, or cheat, or^Em lie ^AmHis name's codiene..., he's the ^Dmfinest thing I've seen and t^Amogether we're gon^Emna wait around to^Am die.
