Steve Earle

I was born by the railroad tracks
The train whistle wailed & I wailed right back
My papa left me when I was quite young
He said one of these days you're gonna follow me son
Cho... Oh oh oh oh oh oh
I ain't ever satisfied
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
I ain't ever satisfied
Well I had me a woman, she was my world
But she went & run off with my back street girl
Well my back street woman could not be true
She left me standin' on the boulavard thinkin' of you
Cho...
I got his empty feeling deep inside
I going back to the other side
Last night I dreamed I made it to the promised land
I was standing at the gate with key in my hand
Saint Peter said come in boy you're finally home
I said no thanks Pete, I just be moving along
Cho...
Cho...
Cho...
