Townes Van Zandt - Waiting around to die слова песни
by Townes Van Zandt
Sometimes I don`t know where
this dirty road is taking me
sometimes I can`t even see the reason why
I guess I keep a-gamblin`
lots of booze and lots of ramblin`
it`s easier than just 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
it`s easier than just waitin` around to die
I came of age and I found a girl
in a Tuscaloosa bar
She cleaned me out and hit in on the sly
I tried to kill the pain, bought some wine
and hopped a train
seemed easier than just waitin` around to die
A friend said he knew
where some easy money was
we robbed a man, and brother did we fly
the posse caught up with me
and drug me back to Muskogee
it`s two long years I`ve been waitin` around to die
Now I`m out of prison
I got me a friend at last
he don`t drink or steal or cheat or lie
His name`s Codine
he`s the nicest thing I`ve seen
together we`re gonna wait around and die
together we`re gonna wait around and die
