E Mama's dead and gone Papa ain't there Mama's dead and gone Papa don't care E Brother buried his head A E Pocket full of shotgun shells A E It's just a merry man A E A Stuck in that whiskey well Chorus: G What's left of my backbone A Is building this broken home E D Building it up just to leave G Said he could change me A How could you blame me E D Not breaking the law to break free G A E So please, take Jackson out of me Sister lays her head She's just a lizard queen She's known too many beds But she sure can sing Your hopeless soul Begging for more time You'd rather die than get old Too bad you ain't killing kind Chorus E B A For this country weighs me down E B A There's nothing left for me in this town E B A These dreams I made before I went E B A For I won't waste no more time, yeah!
