Well, I was standing on a corner. At a flat-ironed building in Nashville, North Carolina. Waiting for a woman that was putting me down. And leaving me way behind and the wind was cold, the wind blew cold.
Tonight the bottle let me down,. And left your memory come around;. The one true friend I thought I'd found,. Tonight the bottle let me down.. . Each night I leave the bar room when it's over,.
Well I was driving by myself through Tennessee. and I broke down on the side of the road, look at me. . Well I got a mohawk, and that's really sad. that I don't think that they'll think I'm a good man.
The sun comes up, but I won't go down. I been real high up and I've hit the ground. . Memories of the past race through my mind. Just like that train on that old track of life.
Well my worn-out boots are taking me downtown. and I'm looking for trouble and I wanna get loud.. . Serve me up a drink and I'll shoot it right down. and I'll jump up on the bar and holler "One more round!".
Well why does it hurt when i see you again?. Is is the memories, or Jack Daniels on your skin?. And I dont know if I'm out of control.. Cuz lately I've been spinnin',.
Well, I have got no money but I am doin' fine.. I'm just a hillbilly hell-raiser; I'm tryin' to kill my time.. An' I'm lookin' for that gal, about five foot ten..
well i'm working real hard and not gettin paid i'm sick of this life and i gotta get a break. I've been real high and I've been down low and i live in a shack on a country dirt road.
Satan is real working in spirit. You can see him an' hear him in this world every day. Satan is real working with power. He can tempt you an' lead you astray.
Well, I'm a runnin' and gunnin'. A little bit crazy. Got half drunk on the day they made me. I don't know why, I guess it's in my genes. . Well, I'm a runnin' and gunnin'.
Well, I've been awake for eight days straight:. Well, it must've been them pills I took.. I been twitchin' an' turnin' an' seein' visions:. It must've been them pills I took..
This song is written and dedicated for G.G Allin. . Pt. I. . I drink a lotta whiskey, smokin all the time. I'm gettin fucked up every god damn night. Everybody's doin cocaine and startin up fights.
Well, my hat's done worn out, my boots are bad. I ain't got a gun but I wish I had. And I'm down in a one horse town. . My gal done left me the other day.
I've been waiting for something to happen. Something of seismic proportion. When you look in my direction. Angels appear in the ceiling. But he's in clouds.
Lookin' back through the years, I saw my anger. There was things that I could not control. Wanderin' through my memories with my darlin'. Now I fall through the door on my own.
Well, I had a good friend. He used to shoot a lot of speed. He was wild and cranky and man. He was always in the need. . But he always just had to do it.
Well, hello there folks, how the hell are you doin':. It's good to be in your local bar again.. So let's get loud, we'll get stoned an' get proud,. Have a damn good time until the show's at an' end..
Well, I'm gonna do some drinkin'. I'm gonna drink all that whiskey that I can. Well, I'm gonna do some drinkin'. I'm gonna drink all that whiskey that I can.
Standin' by, a lonesome graveyard, everything I love is gone,. Weeping as, they lay my darlin',. 'Neath a cold gray tomb of stone.... . In this world, I'm left to wander, with no one to call my own..
She said she's gonna quit me. If I didn't quit the booze. So I just started drinkin' more. To see if she would really choose. . And I have to hand it to that girl.
