Waitin' Around to Die - Townes Van Zandt[00:00:00]
Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me[00:00:10]
Sometimes I can't even see the reason why[00:00:15]
I guess I keep on gamblin' lots of booze and lots of ramblin'[00:00:20]
It's easier than just a waitin' 'round to die[00:00:27]
One time friends I had a ma I even had a pa[00:00:35]
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried[00:00:40]
She told him to take care of me she headed down to Tennessee[00:00:45]
It's easier than just a waitin' 'round to die[00:00:51]
I came of age and found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar[00:00:59]
She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly[00:01:05]
I tried to kill the pain I bought some wine and hopped a train[00:01:10]
Seemed easier than just a waitin' 'round to die[00:01:17]
A friend said he knew where some easy money was[00:01:24]
We robbed a man and brother did we fly[00:01:30]
The posse caught up with me drug me back to Muskogee[00:01:34]
It's two long years just a waitin' 'round to die[00:01:41]
Now I'm out of prison I got me a friend at last[00:01:48]
He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie[00:01:54]
His name's Codeine he's the nicest thing I've seen[00:01:58]
Together we're gonna wait around and die[00:02:05]
