For what it's worth be it by birth cursed at birth had ta'learn ta walk before I could crawl
Jumpin'in an outta brawls,I paid that price,dancin' with demons rolled those dice,couldn't walk the line,couldn't stay in line,life's been as cold as.folsom prison blues,she walks these hills in a long black veil,she's a rose in paradise,nobody knows,nobody sees,she belongs ta him not me,,nobody knows,nobody sees but her an me,a secret of the night,we kept covered from others,a game of pretend hid in shadows tucked away from others in a ring of fire
whiskey an outlaw blues in my veins,demons hot on my tail,a ruff an bumpy road I travel paved with dust,devils an dreams,whiskey weed an women my three sins outlaw blues tell the tolls I payed,took the hit,paid my debt,paid the devil his due,you can take the high road I'll travel the low,Living like a gypsy wth a heart as damp as San Quentin's walls,always on the run from scars,Bouncing off walls stumblin down halls, holdin' on tight trying not ta fall
Wondering how I made it this far,slumped against walls,hustlin' Jesus through it all
Promises made,promises broken
Facades of "I love yous" an never want what we have to end were just words spoken,pretend
Cheech an Chong gone up in smoke,bridges burnt,only regret is teaching those motha' Fucka's' standing on the bridges how ta swim,be it by birth," been swimming against currents since birth,drown motha' fucka's, I can swim," y'all motha' Fuckas can drown "no savior comin' outta the sky to save y'all, Slim Jimmin windows of the past,gone in sixty seconds out runnin' the past,past on my ass "twist the throttle hit the gas"out-running the law so I don't wake up behind bars,writin' my last bars singin my last bars,chasin the moon shine through the bottom of a mason jar
Living like a gypsy with a heart as damp as San Quentin's walls,always on the run from scars
Bouncing off walls stumblin down halls,slumped against walls with one foot in the fire
Wondering how I made it this far,"hustlin' Jesus through it all,".. " Outlaw Blues!"no retreat no surrender" God Damnit, not buyin' what the preacher man is sellin',"no savior ever came outta the sky ta save me,"one hand on the throttle of ape-hanger handle bars other grip a sour mash bottle,heels on the high-way bars,the wind guides me every where I go
Plowin' through that forkin the road,I can hear that long black train a comin'it's comin' down the tracks, jumpin' off track,demon fingers on hair triggers," my demons hunt with precision" target on lock,wash,rinse an repeat "jesus asks for my repentance"I'm runnin' for distance,knees in the breez,face in the wind pushin' this v-twin to it's limit "on the road again"where it leads"MAN!", "I don't fuckin' care, I'm "chasing that thrill again,"catchin' that thrill again!"dancin with demons,Gods gonna cut you down in a ring of fire they all say,,"God Damn it!"wash,rinse an repeat."outlaw blues"dancin' with Demons,hustlin' Jesus through it all in a ring of fire
