Lyrics

Left town in a fury again
Like a bronco, buck or bust
Did it to survive
Before it was for fun
Who am I to thank
My friends because I had none
Or the alcohol 'cause I had more than some
Mama don't you fret I'll make ends meet
Or meet my end
I'm going all in, I'm gambling,
Can't win if you don't play
Said she'd send me money
But she didn't find my joke funny
That a friend of a friend of a dog that I'd met
Said he'd throw me a bone
Oh my time has come
Oh my looks are fading
An old man walks into the bar
Well over half a century in
I ranted 'bout my fear of death
He said its not so grim
Claims it's easier to digress than trying to begin
I'm father to three sons but never felt more like a kid
Unholy hell
Was I that jaded
Never thought
This man would help me shake it
With tales to make you weep
I've gained some miles, I've lost some sleep
But like a child it's getting harder
To restrain me
Oh i've just begun
Oh this skin won't shame me
Oh i'll wear my name
Like the fleas on the mane
Of every buck
I rode on up instead of waiting
It's in the wait that the weight lives,
It's not about what you do, it's that you did
