Townes Van Zandt - Waitin' Around to Die

Kishore Kumar Hits — Townes Van Zandt - Waitin' Around to Die lyrics

Artist: Townes Van Zandt

album: For the Sake of the Song

Sometimes I don't know where
This dirty road is taking me
Sometimes I don't even know the reason why
But I guess I keep a-gamblin'
Lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
Well, it's easier than just waitin' around to die
One time, friends, I had a ma
I even had a pa
Well, he beat her with a belt once cause she cried
She told him to take care of me
Headed down to Tennessee
But it's easier to just wait around to die
I came of age and I found a girl
In a Tuscaloosa bar
Ah, she cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
I tried to kill the pain, I bought some wine
And hopped a train
Seemed easier than just waitin around to die
A friend said he knew
Where some easy money was
We robbed a man, and brother did we fly
The posse caught up with me
And drug me back to Muskogee
It's two long years I've been waitin' around to die
Now I'm out of prison
I got me a friend at last
He don't drink or steal or cheat or lie
His name's Codine
He's the nicest thing I've seen
Yeah, together we're gonna wait around and die
Yeah, together we're gonna wait around and die
