I went honky tonkin' last Saturday night. Dancin' and prancin' beneath the neon lights. Pocket full of silver and not a care in the world. Havin' fun and flirtin' with them honky tonk girls.
Well, hey there, mister man. What's that you say?. Well, you don't like our style. And you say that we're out of date. . With a little bit of Hellbilly country music.
Well, I'm cruisin' all alone. Just a singing my poor song. I've seen them hard hard times. But that's my kind of life. . I like it most the time. When I'm drunk and feeling high.
Yeah, I'm rollin' down that Texas line to see that bar room gill.. If I'm to get fired up and mean and drinkin' time my friends.. I know that someone's going down, that's the rumor I hear on streets.
I've been all around Gutter Town. Looking for a better frown. Beating on misery's door.. . Looking high and looking low. I guess I'm one of those lost souls.
well the grand ole opry aint so grand anymore. did you know hank williams aint a member but they keep him outside thier door. hell they never really want johnny cash back in 74.
A long time forgotten. Are dreams that just felt by the way. And the good life he promised. Ain't what she's living today. . But she never complains of.
Call me a pretty boy, they call me a saint. They call me a sinner, well, it's gonna be the same. 'Cause I'm not afraid, and I'm not a-feared. I ain't gonna lose it, and I'm not scared.
When the closest one is the farthest away. How it burns in your mind when there's nothin' left to say. When the closest one is the farthest away. Is there anything I can do to help you wanna change.
Well, some say, I'm not country. And that's just fine with me. 'Cause I don't wanna be country. With some faggot looking over at me. . They say that I'm ill-mannered.
Well, if the Devil's got a daughter. I got her in my arms. She drinks gin and water. When she hears those. Lonely country songs. She'll howl all night long.
Losin' like a loser. Who's got nothin' to lose. Losin' like a loser. Hell, I don't even feel my blues. But I'll keep on truckin'. 'Till I find me somethin' new.
Way down in West Virginia. There's some people who are one of a kind. They don't need nothin' from nobody. Cause there already doin' fine. You got Hasil Adkins hunchin'.
Well, I was rollin' by myself, went down to Memphis, Tennessee. and I was lookin' for a guy who had a mullet and no teeth. and I was trippin' on some acid a latino gave to me.
Well, oh what a feeling. That burns down low. When you ain't got no where to turn. Or no where to go. . It makes me feel like sometimes. I'm outta control.
Early one mornin' while making the rounds. I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down. Went right home and I went to bed. I stuck that lovin' .44 beneath my head.
Well, my name is Cecil Brown. And I'm from a little town. And people don't think much of me. . I never understood. Why they thought I was no good. But this is how it seems.
Well I'm A Candidate for suicide the more that I get old, I'm A candidate for suicide the drugs have taken their toll, I'm A candidate for suicide I was raped at 8 years old, Well I'm A candidate for suicide cause im a cheap liar and a whore..
I've been up all night and I can't sleep. I've been thinkin' about You and I can't eat. I tried to go outside but it started to rain. And I'm sittin' here in tears, callin' Your name.
Well, I'm broke, lovesick and driftin'. And I've done a lot of hard, hard livin'. Livin' on the road and seein' how it goes. I grew up fast and it shows.
