85 miles out of Nashville, thinkin bout the way things change
Try an keep it by the reigns
Im a lone drifter, big money flipper
Take anything you got on the rocks in a snifter
I missed her in Kentucky, went down to Louisiana
I never had no lovin like I had in Alabama
A man of my word and out to hurt nobody
Im just a mc to keep the boogie in the party
Been sittin lodi dodi since 84 and
Ill be sittin lodi dodi till Im eighty four
I couldnt ask for more, lifes been sweet
So you can save the planet Ill save your seat
I been gone for weeks, I aint slept in days
I cant find myself in this self made maze
Its been so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of the bottle of wine
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way
I never thought about change until
Spend a little time where time stood still
Been lookin for a mill, but I keep comin up shy
I been a broke fool, I aint tryin to be that guy
Wanna ride like lightning, roll like thunder
Im tryin to get some money I aint gettin any yonger
At times I wonder at, at times I wont
Sometimes I give a fuck, but most times I dont
Dont, dont even care
Through stained glass windows these eyse stare
I try to stay straight but its kickin my ass
Everytime I look ahead I get a glimpse of the past
I sit half mass like a soldiers flag
Thats why my left leg limps and my Dickies sag
Its been so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of the bottle of wine
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way
Well I been all around this crooked land
I came across all walks, I shook Jim Beams hand
I got no plans and no place to go
It keeps gettin harder to just say no
I see the people laugh and I see the people cry
Thats how some live and thats how some die
Well me, myself Im gonna sit righ here
And Im a watch this this world break down in tears
All my fears and dark gray skies
Couldnt crack my smile or break my stride
Got too much pride, I got too much shout
I might be down, but I still aint out
Got to much time and thats all I have
When I leave this world Ill still be sad
Its been so long since Ive been fine
Im just tryin to see the bottom of the bottle of wine
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way
And I know Ill see better days
Well I know youll see things my way
