Met a pretty girl in ... I'd been there two years and had two more in life I'd kinda gotten used to the light and low Pulled outta bed when you got nowhere else to go I had nowhere else She looked a lot like my first love back in the country When a cop and a mayor and a judge all conspired against me I only lifted something real cheap and low But they don't like girls holding hands at shows So they dropped me, they dropped me down so low Oh, see you there When they roll me out My sweet little honey don't 'ya do the things that I do When your time is up don't make a fuss, just hang low There's always coppers waiting on the other side To beat you down and bury your pride And they dropped me, oh they dropped me back down inside Listen to my shameful story it could be you It's a choice you made, I know that's what you'd argue But you don't set out to make your life a misery Forces against you seem to defeat your soul And your mind and body follow Oh, see you there When they roll me out I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time Oh, see you there When they roll me out I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time I'll have me a time
