[00:00.00]Waitin' Round to Die - Townes Van Zandt/Not Documented
[00:10.53]Sometimes I don't know where this dirty road is taking me
[00:15.78]Sometimes I can't even see the reason why
[00:20.59]I guess I keep on gamblin' lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
[00:27.57]It's easier than just a waitin' 'round to die
[00:35.01]One time friends I had a ma I even had a pa
[00:40.67]He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
[00:45.15]She told him to take care of me she headed down to Tennessee
[00:51.79]It's easier than just a waitin' 'round to die
[00:59.54]I came of age and found a girl in a Tuscaloosa bar
[01:05.59]She cleaned me out and hit it on the sly
[01:10.16]I tried to kill the pain I bought some wine and hopped a train
[01:17.29]Seemed easier than just a waitin' 'round to die
[01:24.34]A friend said he knew where some easy money was
[01:30.28]We robbed a man and brother did we fly
[01:34.92]The posse caught up with me ** me back to Muskogee
[01:41.92]It's two long years just a waitin' 'round to die
[01:48.92]Now I'm out of prison I got me a friend at last
[01:54.73]He don't steal or cheat or drink or lie
[01:58.82]His name's Codeine he's the nicest thing I've seen
[02:05.95]Together we're gonna wait around and die
