Transcript
00:00One of my favorite songs I've been a part of.
00:05I wrote it about my life over the last ten years.
00:13Heaven knows I've had me one hell of a time
00:17Like the night it gives way to the morning light
00:22There's a pounding in my head again I'd be lying
00:26If I said I wasn't tired
00:29I can't help but think of Janie and those pretty eyes
00:37She was sweet as berries on a summer vine
00:42She had a heart of gold, we were burning coals
00:45Hotter than a sidewalk in July
00:48At the expense of my heart, Lord, I've cast in my soul
00:55And chose this old guitar before, the only love I've known
00:59And I gotta live with that, lose sleep with that
01:02When I close my eyes, I'll die with that again
01:06My life's a credit card play
01:10And I'll pay later and I'm paying hard
01:13I've heard it say that moments come and then they pass
01:22And it sure passed me by when I should have saw my dad
01:27But I plugged it in to another town
01:30Swore another chance would come around again
01:34Yeah, I plugged it in to another town
01:38Swore another chance would come around again
01:40And now he's gone, that kind of gone that don't come back
01:47I wanna see him now in dreams that I have
01:52I gotta live with that, lose sleep with that
01:55When I close my eyes, I'll die with that
01:58My life's a credit card play
02:03And I'll pay later and I'm paying hard
02:06So long, my friends, I guess this is my farewell
02:12And damn all these pennies swimming in my wishing well
02:17I've told every single story that I have to tell
02:22I'll live with that, sleep with that
02:25Make my peace and I'll die with that, yeah
02:29Thank you
