Lyrics

i've got whiskey running through my veins
i'm headed south on a old stream train
yes i'm leaving again it seems
gonna keep on riding till that train runs out of steam

I've got poison swirling in my brain
and i'm riding box car on an old freight train
yes i'm leaving and i ain't never going back
gonna keep on riding till that train runs out of track

c.
cause when you said i will love you forever you meant i won't
and when you said i do well you should have said i don't
said i don't need you
said i won't be true
now you say you don't know how you will ever leave without me
but i do

well i'm trying to get to heaven so I'm not stuck with you in hell
i've got a bible in my right and hand and my left a pistol
oh yes i'm leaving
ain't gonna fool with you no more
keep on sinning till i'm dying
and hope i reach that golden shore
