歌词
I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
♪
Like ridin' around on railcars and workin' long days
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
♪
Call it one drink too many
Call it pride of a man
♪
But it don't make no difference if you sit or you stand
♪
'Cause they both end in trouble and start with a grin
Yeah they both end in trouble and start with a grin
We do it over and over and over again
♪
We do it over and over and over again

I know there's California, Oklahoma
And all of the places I ain't ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers
These are the places you will find me hidin'
These are the places I will always go
These are the places I will always go
I am on my way
I am on my way
I am on my way back to where I started
♪
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
One more for the stars and their eyes in the walls
I hail your face and then, I saw you standing out
♪
I saw your face in the crowd and you came out
♪
You saw me crossing the valley and you came in
♪
Look at the sign on the door and it reads to me
Just like the grass and the sign when you walked in
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh

I am on my way

And all of the places I ain't ever been to but
Down in the valley with
Whiskey rivers

These are the places I will always go
These are the places I will always go

So I wish I was a slave to an age-old trade
Lord have mercy on my rough and rowdy ways
