Well, I walked a thousand miles in these vagabond shoes
I met a cat down by the tracks, and he taught me the blues
We were pickin' and a-singin' to them somber tunes
With a cheap bottle of wine
Well, I don't gotta a penny, not a dime to my name
But if I made it rich, there'd be a few things I would change
I'd buy me a plot of land, and hell I'd stow the rest away
Quit my ramblin' days
Sun goes up and that sun goes down
It's another night in a lonesome ghost town
I just hope that I can see one more sunrise
Life can be hard if you've been dealt a bad hand
So, you pray on the river and go all in
And if you don't roll the dice, then how the hell you gonna win?
Or so I'm learnin', one day at a time
Sometimes I think man was just meant to breed
A very certain kind of infectious greed
And if you don't do it my way, well then, you're gonna bleed
Never sat well with me
The sun goes up and that sun goes down
It's another night in a lonesome ghost town
I just hope that I can see one more sunrise
Well, life can be hard if you've been dealt a bad hand
So, you pray on the river and go all in
But if you don't roll the dice, then how the hell you gonna win?
So I'm learnin', one day at a time
Well, that cat down by the railroad tracks, he finally caught his train
I gotta little bit of money, it's keeping me sane
I bought me a one-man trailer, I guess it's true what they say about learnin'
One day at a time
And that sun goes up and that sun goes down
It's another night in a lonesome ghost town
I just hope that I can see one more sunrise
Life can be hard if you've been dealt a bad hand
So, you pray on the river and go all in
But if you don't roll the dice, then how the hell you gonna win?
Or so I'm learnin', one day at a time
Yeah, if you don't roll the dice, then how the hell you gonna win?
Or so I'm learnin', one day at a time
