Lyrics

[Verse 1]
C
G   Dsus2
 Early in the morning when the sun does rise
C                           G
Layin' in the bed with bloodshot eyes
Dsus2
     Late in the evenin' when the sun sinks low
     C                    G
Well that's about time my rooster crows
Dsus2
     I got women up and down this creek
             C                G
And they keep me going and my engine clean
Dsus2
     Run me ragged but I don't fret
                 C                 G            Dsus2
Cause there ain't been one slow me down none yet

[Chorus]
Dsus2
Get  me drinking' that moonshine
   C                   G
Get me higher than the grocery bill
Dsus2
Take my troubles to the highwall
         C                    G
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
  Dsus2
We     been sniffing that cocaine
     C                        G
Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold
Dsus2
Lord it's a mighty hard livin'
          C                   G
But a damn good feelin' to run these roads

[Post-Chorus]
| Dsus2 - | C G | Dsus2 - | C G |

[Verse 2]
Dsus2
I    got people try to tell me, Red
    C                       G
Keep this livin' and you'll wind up dead
Dsus2
     Cast your troubles on the Lord of Lord's
       C               G
Or wind up laying on a coolin' board
Dsus2
     But I got buddies up White House Road
             C                     G
And they keep me strutting when my feet hang low
Dsus2
     Rotgut whiskey gonna ease my pain
      C                    G
'N all this runnin's gonna keep me sane

[Chorus]
   Dsus2
Get     me drinking' that moonshine
   C                   G
Get me higher than the grocery bill
    Dsus2
Take     my troubles to the highwall
     C                        G
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
  Dsus2
We     been sniffing that cocaine
     C                        G
Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold
Dsus2
Lord it's a mighty hard livin'
          C                   G
But a damn good feelin' to run these roads

[Solo]
Dsus2           C                   G
     It's a damn good feelin' to run these roads
Dsus2 C G

[Verse 3]
Dsus2
When they lay me in the cold hard clay
             C                     G
Won't ya sing them hymns while the banjo plays
Dsus2
     You can tell them ladies that they ought not frown
                 C                  G
Cause there ain't been nothing ever held me down

[Bridge]
Dsus2   G
     Lawmen, women or a shallow grave
Same ol' blues just a different day

[Chorus]
   Dsus2
Get     me drinking' that moonshine
   C                   G
Get me higher than the grocery bill
Dsus2
Take my troubles to the highwall
     C                        G
Throw 'em in the river and get your fill
  Dsus2
We     been sniffing that cocaine
     C                        G
Ain't nothin' better when the wind cuts cold
    Dsus2
Lord     it's a mighty hard livin'
          C                   G
But a damn good feelin' to run these roads

[Outro]
Dsus2           C                   G
