Yeah ha ha
Well now my Ol lady left found a new man with money
Tried to laugh it off but they ain’t nothing funny
Power man showed up left me sitting in the dark
Got no groceries in my cupboards I’m going to the bar
I need some pain killers
(Oooo)
Give me some pain killers
(Pain killers)
Break out that wine
Pass me some Millers
I Need pain killers
Well now that Repo man’s creeping tryin to find my truck
I’ve been higher than diesel I’ve been down on my luck

Bossman says I’m canned if I miss one more day
Give me some pain killers
(Oooo)
I need some pain killers
(Pain killers)
Break out that smoke
Crank up that Skynyrd

Give me some pain killers
God bless George Jones
God help my liver
I need pain killers
We swore last time was the last time baby
But I’m waking up here again
The alcohol and the past come haunting
I knew we’d never make it as friends
Was it all a mistake?
Or is loving me again a chance you’re willing to take yeah
I’ll stay if you’ll let me now mama, I know
I can be what ya need, but if
I ain’t what you want, nah baby
Ain’t got to explain it
Don’t waste your best goodbye on me
Mmm not on me
We’ve danced around this same song now mama
More times than we would care to admit
We should just drop our walls down babe
And throw caution and doubt to the wind
I’ve lost you before
But I don’t wanna leave this bed unwelcome no more yeah
I’ll stay if you’ll let me now mama, I know
I can be what ya need, but if
I ain’t what you want, nah baby
You ain’t got to explain it
Don’t waste your best goodbye on me
Ooo Not on me

I’ll stay if you’ll let me now mama, I know
I can be what you need, but if
I ain’t what you want, nah baby
You ain’t got to explain it
Don’t waste your precious time, no
Ain’t got to explain it
Don’t waste your best goodbye on me
Mmm mmm mmm
Not on me

Long gone on another all nighter
Chick just split and I ain’t trying to find her
Imma lost cause ready to blow
Eyes on the prize walking through that door
My my what a fine sugar shaker
Makes em like that you gotta hand it to your maker
Strange
I ain’t feelin no pain
It’s like it all went away
Once I found me a little new lovin
No rings, no strings, no nothing
It’s strange
Without your ball and chain
I’m like a dog out the cage
Better off without you honey
All it took was something Strange
Damn girl, what a honky to do
I gotta lotta free time not fuckin with you
I’m in a glass house, throwing your stones
Swing by later see that nobody’s home
I said my oh my I’m out new boot goofing
with a bunch of bad girls all 100 proofin’
Strange
I ain’t feelin no pain
It’s like it all went away
Once I got me a little new lovin
No rings, no strings, no nothing
It’s strange
Without your ball and chain
I’m like a dog out the cage
Better off without you honey
All it took was something Strange
La La La
Strange

Strange
I ain’t feelin no pain
It’s like it all went away
Once I found me a little new lovin
No rings, no strings, no nothing

Without your ball and chain
I’m like a dog out the cage
Better off without you honey
All it took was something Strange
Woo
Flat tire banging off the black top
Bad luck been slowing my roll
I just limp it to the rest stop
Fore I get got by the state patrol
Damn this ol Indiana asphalt
Whippin’ our ass off the whole damn time
Laid back but damn it gets heavy
Try’n to keep an old chevy in between the lines
Hard miles
All smiles
Go a lot of places don’t stay awhile
Long days
Long nights
Little banged up but we all right
Keep on driving
Even when it’s gettin rough
All smiles
Aww child
Just can’t get enough
Hard miles
Woke up a little hung over
Out in Sturgis South Dakota in a cheap motel
Hell I got just enough money
For a couple Red Bulls and some Taco Bell
Low fuel flashing off the dashboard
A circle K’d be a hell of a sight
Damn if we can just keep it running
We know Omaha Nebraska gonna treat us nice
Hard miles
All smiles
Go a lot of places don’t stay awhile
Long days
Long nights
Little banged up but we all right
Keep on driving
Even when it’s gettin rough
All smiles
Aww child
Just can’t get enough
Hard miles
Hard miles
All smiles
Go a lot of places don’t stay awhile
Long days
Long nights
Little dinged up but we’ll be all right
Keep on driving
Even when it’s gettin rough
All smiles
Aww child
Just can’t get enough
Hard miles
Hard miles
I rot alone inside this hell
of no parole they call a cell
And pray time heals me
For reasons you won’t understand
I bought a gun I killed a man
But I’m not guilty
I swear
It’s just her love took me there
I knew he beat her every night
It broke my heart to see her cry
And she’d defend him
I couldn’t let him walk away
I knew the price I’d have to pay
For me to end her pain
They’d surely put me away
But I had fire in my eyes
Lighting in my veins
And i’ve become so lost in here I hardly feel a thing
This man you see in me
Aint’ nothing like I was when I was free
I’m just a shell
Just caught somewhere a little north of Hell
I touch the glass you touch the glass
We cry cause this will be the last
Time you see me
Ol Sparky’s all fired up for use
The warden’s voice howls roll on 2
I cry believe me I’ve changed
God knows I’ve changed
But I know it won’t change a thing
Don’t change a thing
And I feel fire from my eyes
As lightning touches vein
I’ve become so lost in here I hardly feel a thing
This man you see in me
Ain’t nothing like I was when I was free
I’m just a shell
Caught somewhere a little north of Hell
I’m just lost somewhere a little north of Hell
I rot alone inside this hell
Of no parole they call a cell
I Pray time heals me
Just another boring Friday in a no name town
She decided she’d step out for a drink
Met a silver tongued traveler he was looking to score
Ended up inside his cutlass supreme
And he parked it by the river they was taking it slow
Wolf come out and she never come home
Famous last words, “it’s never gonna happen to me”
Ooo Ooo
Don’t talk to strangers
Strangers they got nothing but trouble for you
Ooo Ooo
You’ll find yourself in danger
Wishin’ you’d have listened when they told ya
Don’t talk to strangers
Ooo
He’s a trust fund baby got a Harvard degree
And an appetite to powder his nose
He was fienin’ like a demon, when a friend of a friend
Said he knew a guy that lived pretty close
On the wrong side of the tracks when they lured him in
Took all of his money no one seen him again
Don’t go doing business with them shady folks that you don’t know
Ooo Ooo
Don’t talk to strangers
Strangers they got nothing but trouble for you
Ooo Ooo
You’ll find yourself in danger
Wishin’ you’d have listened when they told ya
Don’t talk to strangers
Ooo Ooo
Don’t talk to strangers
Strangers they got nothing but trouble for you
Ooo Ooo
You’ll find yourself in danger
Wishin’ you’d have listened when they told ya
Don’t talk to strangers
She ain’t in love with you
She just keeps you around cause she knows she can keep on fucking you
And when you’re gone
She’ll move on
Find a new song
Playing by someone new
Someone who loves her too
Who will eat sleep live breathe and bleed just hoping she’d make their dreams come true
Aww but she takes and she takes and she takes
Like she took all my money
She took my time
Yeah she may look good but she ain’t no friend of mine
Gave her my songs
Gave her my soul
ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL
ROCK AND ROLL IS A BITCH!
I know she’s bad for me
From the moment we met mom and daddy said that it was so sad too see
A nice boy
Unemployed
With his future destroyed, “What blasphemy!”
Shakin the apple tree
Tryin to outlast the snakes in the grass
God knows that they’re after me
And they want to take take take take take
Just like she took all my money
She took my time
Yeah she may look good but she ain’t no friend of mine
Gave her my songs
Gave her my soul
ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL
ROCK AND ROLL IS A BITCH!
Yeaaaaah
Just like she took all my money
She took my time
Yeah she may look good but she ain’t no friend of mine
Gave her my songs
Gave her my soul
ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL, ROCK AND ROLL
ROCK AND ROLL IS A BITCH!
ROCK AND ROLL IS A BITCH!
Got the hell out of Oklahoma
Left behind my wicked ways
But these habits always find me
Every time I try to change
The wolves were surly howlin
As I was burnin cross the plains
I was tryin to fight em off
But lord this always ends the same
This highway’s slowly closing in on me
I’ve been playing fast and loose
I somehow still made 33
There’s evil all around me
It’s claws are in me deep
I got to keep on moving
Cause the devil never sleeps
On the run in Amarillo
Off the wagon once again
I was riding on a twister
Of amphetamine and gin
Killed a man outside Odessa
At The Armadillo Inn
Snatched up the pills aimed for the hills
Lord I was too high to repent
This highway’s slowly closing in on me
I’ve been playing fast and loose
I somehow still made 33
There’s evil all around me
It’s claws are in me deep
I got to keep on moving
Cause the devil never sleeps
In a shootout at the border
Sheriff yelling show your hands
I felt a bullet tear my skin
As I jumped in the Rio Grande
This highway’s slowly closing in on me
I’ve been playing fast and loose
I somehow still made 33
There’s evil all around me
It’s claws are in me deep
I got to keep on moving
Cause the devil never sleeps
I never hit no walk off home-runs
Never took home the homecoming queen
All my life my home’s been a trailer
Full of white trash and broken dreams
Bruised up kid from an alcoholic step dad
Kicked out of school for a little bit of pot
Curveball cousin nobody seen me coming
Like Babe Ruth baby I was calling my shot
God damn you can’t tell me nothing
Long shot coming like I always knew I’d win
Look out that lone wolf’s running, big hunting like I ain’t been
Stepped on slept on damn near forgotten
Clawed my ass to the top from the bottom
Just when you thought you was running up the score on me
Here come The Underdog
Heard a whole lotta back seat drivers
Giving out directions like they know the way
Can’t help but notice it’s been awful quiet
Since I made myself a name
So go ahead and act happy when you see me
Then tell all your friends how you disapprove
Guess I’d rather be a piece of shit like me
Then be a hypocrite like you, nah man
God damn you can’t tell me nothing
Long shot coming like I always knew I’d win
Look out that lone wolf’s running, big hunting like I ain’t been
Stepped on slept on damn near forgotten
Clawed my ass to the top from the bottom
Just when you thought you was running up the score on me
Here come the Underdog
God damn you can’t tell me nothing
Long shot coming like I always knew I’d win
Look out that lone wolf’s running, big hunting like I ain’t been
Stepped on slept on, damn near forgotten
Clawed my ass to the top from the bottom
Just when you thought you was running up the score on me
Here come the Underdog
Here come the Underdog
Here come the Underdog
Here come the Underdog
I’ve heard the stories of ghosts in this town
I ain’t seen nothing since I’ve been around
Silent protectors watch over their kin
Run off outsiders tryin to get in
Ahhhhh Ahhh Ahhh
Ahhhhh Ahhh Ahhh
A father to be with a gun in my hand
Ran the Ohio, a fur trading man
Rivers ran red more than they ever ran gold
Figured out quick I may never get home
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Brought back to Richmond in 1801
Changed by the world and the evil I’d done
Nora gave birth to a daughter that spring
But I’m much too cold now to love anything
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
Watched her grow up and she married off well
He’s treated her worse since the market’s been hell
He’d hit the bottle to hide all the hurt
He died unexpected the night he hit her
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo ooo
I’ve heard the stories of ghosts in this town
I ain’t seen nothing since they laid me down
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
