Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Early in the morning when the sun does rise
Laying in the bed with bloodshot eyes
Late in the evening when the sun sinks low
That's about the time my rooster crows
[Verse 2]
I got women up and down this creek
And they keep me going and my engine clean
Run me ragged but I don't fret
'Cause there ain't been one to slow me down none yet
[Verse 3]
Get me drinking that moonshine
Get me higher than the grocery bill
Take my troubles to the high wall
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
We been sniffing that cocaine
Ain't nothing better when the wind cuts cold
Lord, it's a mighty hard living
But a damn good feeling to run these roads
[Verse 4]
I got people trying to tell me, "Red
Keep this living and you'll wind up dead
Cast your troubles on the Lord of Lords
Wind up laying on the cooling board"
But I got buddies up Whitehouse Road
And they keep me strutting when my feet hang low
Rotgut whiskey gonna ease my pain
And all this running's gonna keep me sane
[Verse 5]
Get me drinking that moonshine
Get me higher than the grocery bill
Take my troubles to the high wall
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
We been sniffing that cocaine
Ain't nothing better when the wind cuts cold
Lord, it's a mighty hard living
But a damn good feeling to run these roads
It's a damn good feeling to run these roads
[Verse 6]
When you lay me in the cold hard clay
Won't you sing them hymns while the banjo plays
You can tell them ladies that they ought not frown
'Cause there ain't been nothing ever held me down
Lawmen, women, or a shallow grave
Same old blues just a different day
Get me drinking that moonshine
Get me higher than the grocery bill
Take my troubles to the high wall
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
We been sniffing that cocaine
Ain't nothing better when the wind cuts cold
Lord, it's a mighty hard living
But a damn good feeling to run these roads
It's a damn good feeling to run these roads
It's a damn good feeling to run these roads
