Runnin for the mountains
Yeah I got a heavy load thats been hauntin' my day
Fightin' my own demons
Seems like its getting a lot harder these days
But I'm doin' what I can runnin' from my crazy ways
Tattooed and branded, shootin' down fame, don' it my own way
Livin' like and outlaw, lovin' all the pain and the hard times comin' my way
No I'm not losin' myself to the changin' ways of today
Busted and held for ransome
Yeah I've don my time gettin' beat by the man
Drifin' stoned and lonesome
Yeah I know how to get by the best that I can
Yeah I'm lookin' for a mountain to wash my dirty hands
Yeah I'm lookin' for a mountain that I wanna call home
Yeah I'm lookin' for a mountain, a place to rest my bones and I just wanna breath that mountain air til I'm gone
Runnin' on empty, I been speedin' so hard my eyes are turnin' gray
Feelin' mean and shaky from all the hellraisin' I've done for today
Now I'm headin' down south tryin to find a better way
Yeah I'm lookin' for a mountain that I wanna call home
Yeah I'm lookin' for a mountain a place to rest my bones
Yeah I know I been ridin high and that made mama cry cause I been busted my whole damn life
I been busted my whole damn life
I been busted....yeah I know how to run, I know how to survive cause I been busted my whole damn life.
