D
Now I'm here on the blacktop sun in my eyes

Women and country on my mind

Both turned me out over the borderline

No more digging holes of graves

I was born in a stable built like an ox

Down in the pastures I learned how to walk

Mama she raised me to sing and a little talk

And no rich man's worth his weight in dust

They bury him down same as they do us

God wants us busy never giving up
