Ain't Livin' Long Like This Lyrics

Andy Griggs
You Won't Ever Be Lonely
Ain't Livin' Long Like This
(rodney crowell)

I looked for trouble and found it son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
I'd try to run but i don't think i can
If i move i'm a dead man

Ain't livin' long like this
I can't live at all like this can i baby
He slipped the cuffs on behind my back
Then left me freezing on a steel rail rack
They got ¡®em all in the jailhouse don't they baby
I ain't livin' long like this
Can't live at all like this can i baby

Grew up in houston off a wayside drive
Son of a carhop in an all-night dive
He drove a stock car to an early death
All i remember is a drunk man's breath
Ain't livin' long like this
I can't live at all like this can i baby

We know the story how the wheel goes ¡®round
Don't let ¡®em take you to the man downtown
I can't sleep at all in the jailhouse can i baby
Ain't livin' long like this
I can't live at all like this can i baby

I live for angel she's the roadhouse queen
Make texas ruby look like sandra dee
I want to love her but i don't know how
I'm at the bottom of the jailhouse now
Ain't livin' long like this
I can't live at all like this can i baby

You know the story ¡®bout the jailhouse rock
Go on and do it just don't get caught
They got ¡®em all in the jailhouse don't they baby
Ain't livin' long like this
I can't live at all like this can i baby

Ain't livin' long like this
I swear i can't live at all like this can i baby
Oh baby
Take it home for me
Ain't livin' long like this am i baby

You Won't Ever Be Lonely
