Laid Back And Wasted

By D. Murphy
Laid back and wasted
Driven to drinking
A woman ain’t nothing to lose
Don’t ever doubt it
I’ll live without it
I’ll give you the blues
I spent a lifetime
Looking for the answers
Somewhere in search of my soul
I lost it in Nashville
I found it in Austin
I sold it in New Mexico
Ten thousand miles
Of road dust can’t cover
The scars that I put on my arm
And the bridges I’m burning
Will never erase
The scars that they’ve put on my heart
Dying looks easy
Drifting gets harder
I don’t know which one to choose
Don’t ever doubt it
I’ll live without it
I’ll give you the blues
Laid back and wasted
Driven to drinking
A woman ain’t nothing to lose
Don’t ever doubt it
I’ll live without it
I’ll give you the blues
Don’t ever doubt it
I’ll live without it
I’ll give you the blues
