Waitin’ Round To Die (Acoustic Live)

Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
But I guess I keep a-gamblin, lots of booze, and lots of ramblin
Ah, it's easier than just a-waitin around to die

One time, friends, I had a ma, I even had a pa
He beat her with a belt once cause she cried
She told him to take care of me, headed down to Tennessee
Ah, it's easier than just a-waitin around to die

Well, I come of agе and I found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned mе out and hit it on the sly
I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine and hopped a train
It seemed easier than just a-waitin around to die

Then a friend said he knew where some easy money was
We robbed a man and, brother, did we fly
But the posse caught up with me and drug me back to Muskogee
It's two long years a-waitin around to die

Oh but now I'm out of prison, I got me a friend at last
He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
Well, his name is Codeine, he's the nicest thing I've seen
Together we're gonna wait around and die
Oh, together we're gonna wait around and die
