From the recording Ain't That Something
Lyrics
Toss and turn and I can’t sleep
The pills don’t work too much to think about
Life and death and everything in between
Thoughts spinning ‘round my head
I gotta cut the grass and the doctor bills
Looks like rain and I can’t pay a thing
Hotter than the devil’s hell
Feels like I’m gonna melt
Right into the floorboard underneath
Every time I turn around
I find myself out further in the deep
Hey now sometimes
I don’t wanna deal with it
All the problems this life hands me down
As I make my way on this long winding road
Ain’t too much to talk about
The good “ol days are running out
Still looking for the sunny side of life
Family is on the mend
Starting to dry up again
Gettin’ by but we’ve seen better days
Paranoia on my mind
Hell I think about it all the time
When I slip into the past and all I’ve done
So I have to ask the good Lord
Why you kept me ‘round here for so long
Hey now sometimes
I don’t wanna deal with it
All the problems this life hands me down
As I make my way on this long winding road
Lately seems to hassle me
With God knows what and everything
Just keep my head down against the wind
Nothing’s held me down just yet
I take whatever I can get
Got some coin I squirreled away again
Saved it for a rainy day
But I gave it to you anyway
I thought that you could use it more than me
All this time I coulda turned around
And gone back to sleep
Hey now sometimes
I don’t wanna deal with it
All the problems this life hands me down
As I make my way on this long winding road
