C
You  looked for trouble and you found it son

Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun

C
You tried to run but I don't think you can

C
You make one move and you're a dead man friend

             F
Ain't living long like this

              C
Can't live at all like this can I baby

G
He slipped the handcuffs on behind your back

And left me freezing on a steel rail track

            F
They got'em all in the jailhouse baby

                C
I Ain't living long like this

C
Grew up in Houston off the wayside drive

Son of a carhop in some all night dives Dad drove a stock car to an early death All I remember was a drunk man's breath

               F
I Ain't living long like this

              C

You know the story how the wheel goes 'round

Don't let them take you to the man downtown
