I looked for trouble and I found this son
Straight down the barrel of a lawman's gun
I tried to run but I don't think I can
You make one move and you're a dead man's friend
Ain't [D] living long like this
[A] Ain't living like this, am I baby?
[E] He slipped the handcuffs on behind my back
Then left me reeling on a steel rail
I could've [D] got him all in the jailhouse, baby
Ain't [A] living long like this
Ain't living like this, am I baby?
Grew up in Houston on the wayside drive
Son of a car hoppin' some all night drive
Dad drove a stock car to a girl he'd met
All I remember was a drunk man breath
Ain't [D] living long like this
Ain't [A] living like this, am I baby?
[E] We know the story how the wheel goes round
Don't let them take you to the man downtown
[D] Can't sleep at all in the jailhouse, baby

Ain't living like this, am I baby?

I live for pain and she's a roadhouse queen
Make Texas Ruby look like Sanford B

Ain't [A] living long like this, am I baby?

Don't wanna do it but just don't get caught
