I've been beat up bad, 

I've been kicked around 

I've been thrown out of every damn bar in this old town 

In this old town 

I guess they don't like the way we like to have our fun 

'cause I'm always out there and I'm on the run 

and I'm runnin' and a gunnin' and a lookin' for a damn good time 



I've done so much trip they can't look me in the eye 

'cause I'm always tryin' to find that umltimate high 

and I was hangin' out with my hero, his name is, uh, David Allan Coe 

Well I was messed up bad, and he was messed up right 

and me and him, well we almost got in a fight 

but we ended up at this bar on the side of that road

Well I was runnin' real hard and he was runnin' real fast 

but we got cut up, up there at the pass 

and we ended up at this bar on the side of that road
