Lyrics

I got a woman at home just south of San Antone
What am I doing here on the road?
She said she'd hold it for me 'til I got back from Tennessee
But I got popped for a big overload
TV preacher said to rest my weary head
Set my burdens down on the ground
It took a gallon of gin to cover up my sin
I got a handful of pills to get down
I been drinking that poison
But I want somebody else to die
I got my head on the bedstead wondering why
I got a life that's worthless
All I do is sit and cry
Baby, send a little money
I'm gonna try it one more time
I try to do right when the sun shines bright
But in the nighttime, I fall back down
Down to the level I live where there's no one to forgive
If the skies have all darkened to brown
I can tell you more lies if the truth works just fine
I can blame it on you in the end
You best lock up them locks 'cause I can sure enough spot
A great big house that gots nobody in
I been drinking that poison
But I want somebody else to die
I got my head on the bedstead wondering why
I got a life that's worthless
All I do is sit and cry
Baby, send a little money
I'm gonna try it one more time
I been pissed off about ten years or more
Laying wasted down on the floor
Amongst the sweat and the shit, and don't you never forget
I came here 'cause I need a little more
I thee well from an empty shell
Of a man who's got nothing but time
I got a head full of dope and a tourniquet rope
'Cause I'm slipping right out of my mind
I been drinking that poison
But I want somebody else to die
I got my head on the bedstead wondering why
I got a life that's worthless
All I do is sit and cry
Baby, send a little money
I'm gonna try it one more time
I been drinking that poison
But I want somebody else to die
I got my head on the bedstead wondering why
I got a life that's worthless
All I do is sit and cry
Baby, send a little money
I'm gonna try it one more time
