Lyrics

I got a painted lady waiting for me right upstairs
I got a half a hundred dollars in her underwear
I got a case of whiskey and a bottle of pills
And that woman ain't never gonna cure my ills
By the side of the road, the side of the road
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
And I left it laying on the side of the road
There's a businessman hunting for a two-by-four
And a housewife wishing for a gigolo
There's an old dog eating in a garbage can
Well, the worst of the curst is the empty hand
By the side of the road, the side of the road
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a forty Smith & Wesson in a car downtown
I got a hollow point safety on a chambered round
Selling methamphetamine to Jungle Jim
'Til I crash and burn or drop the dime again
By the side of the road, the side of the road
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
And I left it laying on the side of the road
The preacher told me about the blessing of Abraham
I got powder residue on the back of my hand
Gotta find that woman that did me wrong
Well, I vomit up blood when I drink too long
By the side of the road, the side of the road
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
Yeah, I left it laying on the side of the road
Well, the people I know wanna get me high
'Cause I know where to get it and I don't mind dying
I got a scar on my arm when the times got hard
Well, I need a good woman in a rich man's yard
By the side of the road, the side of the road
And I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
And I left it laying on the side of the road
By the side of the road, the side of the road
I left it laying on the side of the road
I got a heavy load, a heavy load
Yeah, I left it laying on the side of the road
