In this place I found a way to escape But the cops are coming to arrest me Old times seem so far away When I see my hair how it look so gray I always thought that I was a runaway But now I know it's time to surrender Then I got my cowboy hat And I'm getting ready to get down the river This is a story of a broken man Not so broken, but old enough to don't stand He picked up some things and tooked off But lefted his heart, it's nothing at all I know the words but i cannot rhyme I'm getting lost in my own mind Another drink and it's gonna be allright Then I lose my friends, my kids and wife
