Working from 9 to 5 can beat a man down from day to day

but when your working for whiskey and women, Hearing what I say?

THis old dog has learned a thing or two just a riding on the country lanes

Sometimes you need to just feel alive to get passed all the mundane

—chorus—

There aint no use in thinking when you know what you gotta do

talking is procrastination, you got to kick it down and break it loose

ohh lord kick it down and break it loose

People spending their lives trying to keep one up on their brother man

I pay no mind to that bullshit, yes I never give a god damn

looking back to the happiest days barely made myself the months rent

no I couldn’t find 2 dimes to rub together, never worried bout what I spent

—chorus—

Its been too many years I lost count some time ago

seems like the faces and places of my childhood melt away like a late snow

been away from town for so many years they’ll hardly recognize my face

so take me Mississippi river take me back to my mammas place

Lay Down Low

Sometimes you play a hand and it turns it all upside down

I’ve got a real bad feeling that they’re coming for me now

said don/t you hear the tires burning up to the house

Hear them call my name but I just can’t go

Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low

——————-

a rendezvous arranged by cell got the marker placed

I hear them at the front door I leave as I hear it break

veiled in darkened shadow I make a slow retreat

All those fools a chasing think they’re in the Know

Slipped past in the night  just to lay down low

——————-

Once again, Im running like the Devil in the dark of night

kill the lights my friend and throw it into 4WD

these woods and roads I’ve known just about all of my life

this here truck can motor but is goes too slow

Said I got to leave the ground so I can lay down low

——————-

Sometimes you play a hand and nothin’ ends turning right

but just past the state line ooh an airstrip dark as night

load the cargo sit back as we take flight

jet plane take me to where I want to go

Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low

——————-

3x  Don’t you know I’ve got to lay down low
