Lyrics

[00:10.01] Momma played piano in a Pentecostal church
[00:12.69] Starin' them snakes in the eye
[00:15.25] Daddy died drunk, left us all in a lurch
[00:18.31] Hell I did what I did to get by
[00:21.18] I did what I did to get by
[00:23.61]
[00:25.74] A third grade education won't bring you no luck
[00:28.54] When you're looking for a way to get paid
[00:30.91]
[00:31.54] Turned 14 and stole a pickup truck
[00:34.22] Couldn't make it on minimum wage
[00:37.03] Couldn't make it on minimum wage
[00:39.46]
[00:41.64] Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
[00:44.58] I had me one foot in the grave
[00:46.95]
[00:47.51] Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
[00:50.26] But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[00:52.44]
[00:53.13] No they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[00:55.58]
[01:07.93] Well you can't stay long when you're living on the run
[01:10.87] And the high sheriff's lookin' for you
[01:13.43] Never shot nobody with a loaded gun
[01:16.55] But I found me a lover or two
[01:19.23] Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
[01:22.47] I had me one foot in the grave
[01:25.28] Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
[01:28.27] But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[01:30.96] No they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[01:33.52]
[01:38.63] Momma still plays piano in the same ol' church
[01:41.38] Helpin' them sinners get saved
[01:43.56]
[01:44.37] Daddy died drunk, left us all in a lurch
[01:47.31] And they call me Monroe Suede
[01:49.88] Well I almost got caught in Tulsa town
[01:53.00] I had me one foot in the grave
[01:55.87] Ah they're gonna die trying to track me down
[01:58.93] But they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[02:01.55] No they'll never catch Monroe Suede
[02:03.98]
[02:04.49] They'll never catch Monroe Suede
