Lyrics
It's been a long life, and even longer night
That being said, and old as I am, I'm still trying to figure out wrong or right, but I'll be fine
These country meds gonna help me ease my mind
Rolling down this old road, trying to keep my right wheel on that white line
My vision's blurry, but I ain't in no kind of hurry
You can tailgate and blow your horn, but I know what I'm gonna hear when I get home
I shouldn't be drinking. I shouldn't be smoking
I shouldn't be hoeing out hear hoping you'll be waiting for me with your arms wide open
Well, I ain't gonna change, even though I'm running out of time
They say it's gonna catch up to me one day
Well that day, I'll cross that line
They say, damn it, cowboy, you just ain't gonna learn
Well, a tree can only grow one way
Even if you paint that acorn, you can watch me grow
Or Cut me down right out of your life
I won't put up with much of a fight, cause I never promised you that I would be right
I know I shouldn't be drinking. I shouldn't be smoking
I shouldn't be hoeing out here hoping you'll be waiting for me with your arms wide open
Well, I ain't gonna change, even though I'm running out of time
They say it's gonna catch up to me one day
Well that day, I'll cross that line
That day, I'll cross that line ummm..
Hey, I shouldn't be drinking. I shouldn't be smoking
Oh no, I shouldn't be hoeing out hear hoping you ain't laying somewhere
With your legs wide open
But I can't change, cause I'm already out of time
