didnt mean to kill that man in austin
but i caught him with my wife
no i cannot justify it
somethings in this life aint right

cuz everywhere i go i gotta lay low
thats just the way the old story goes
walking down the line on the wrong side of the tracks
when u break the law ur backs against the wall
theres nothing u can do and noone u can call
ur a drifter, ur never coming back, never coming back

yea i kno ive got some problems
and my tempers pretty bad
and ive lost everything i own
ruined everything i had

thats just the way the old story goes
walking down the line on the wrong side of the tracks
when u break the law ur backs against the wall
theres nothing u can do and noone u can call
ur a drifter, ur never coming back, never coming back
