I've played in bars and nursing homes And train stations out west Carnivals and backyard fun And everywhere else in between Bless the ones who helped the cause And damn those hearts of stone Couches, floors and fold-out beds Just thankful for a place to lay my head I miss my farm and family The hills and the woods I gotta girl back there who's good to me And I'd be there right now if I could I spent a lifetime underground And I don't want no grave Just throw my ashes in the field And hope there's some soul left to save Oh I just hope there's some soul left to save
