Here We Go

(アルバム： Dancehall Dreamer - 1995)

Well up and at 'em, yeah here we go
I'm off again to the rodeo
Sure got a lotta other little things on my mind
Well, one's a song I just started writing
And the other's a girl I just finished fighting
She said it was me, Lord, I just don't believe her

If you wanna know where I'm a-coming from
You just sit right there and I'll tell you, son
This life I lead ain't as wonderful as it appears

Yeah but I here I go again
Singing it in this dive
Lonestar beer in my cereal
But it's keeping me alive
I gave up on Nashville a long time ago
Yeah, but here I go, Lord, once again, here I go

Now, I don't need to be too rich
I'm just an old hard-headed son of a bitch
My eyes are still set way back on my glory days
Back in the time of the Dukes of Hazzard
I was listening to Willie and old Merle Haggard
Smiling just a little as I poke along in my truck

There's a lot of poor folks in my situation
With the years of heartache and frustration
Kindly watching as the dreams turn into years

Yeah but I here I go again
Singing it in this dive
Lonestar beer in my cereal
But it's keeping me alive
I gave up on Nashville a long time ago
Yeah, but here I go, Lord, once again, here I go

Let me tell you folks, it don't really matter
That beer drinking never really made you fatter
It's all those nights on the couch with a TV dinner
After twelve years with the Copenhagen
Well, I finally found out that I was mistaken
It's not gonna be something to add the years to my life

Yeah, and that's why I'm still dipping it today
And each and every morning I hear Mama say,
"Boy that shit's gonna kill you if the women don't get you first!"

Yeah but I here I go again
Singing it in this dive
Lonestar beer in my cereal
But it's keeping me alive
I gave up on Nashville a long time ago
Yeah, but here I go, Lord, once again, here I go
