lyrics

LYRICS
I left home long ago but I still don’t know where I’m going
Took an old riverboat, turned my back on this town and I’m gone

I’m waking up drunk in the clear sunshine
Running out of smokes but I’m doing fine
Dancing in the Backwater Woods having a hell of a time

Took a lone from the bank but they still don’t know where I’m living
They can sing for their money or take a caseload of hickory pies

I’m waking up drunk in the clear sunshine
Running out of smokes but I’m doing fine
Dancing in the Backwater Woods having a hell of a time
