Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
I guess I'll keep on gambling, lots of booze, and lots of rambling
Easier than a-waiting around to die
ย
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 and headed down to Tennessee
Easier than a-waiting around to die
ย
I came of age and met a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
She clะตaned me out and hit it on the sly
I triะตd to kill the pain, I bought some wine, I hopped a train
Seemed easier than waiting around to die
ย
I had a friend who said he knew where some easy money was
We robbed a man and, brother, did we fly
His posse caught up with me and drug me back to Muskogee
Now it's two long years just waiting around
ย
Two long years just waiting around
Two long years just waiting around
Two long years of waiting around to die
ย
Now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
He don't drink or cheat or steal or lie
His name is Codeine, and he's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around
Together we're gonna wait around and die
