I've lost in 
Oklahoma. 
I've been busted and thrown in jail, 
And I didn't have no mama to try to pay my bail. 
Yeah I know about losing, cause 
I've lost all 
I've had, but 
I guess that's the price you'd pay when you're on heartbreak's edge. 
Down in Arizona, 
I felt hell on me 
And I've lost me some damn good friends who gave their life to speed. 
One day I might find out what is all about, but until then 
I'll just drink some more until 
I figure it out. 
On the run driftin' alone like a dog without a home on the run, driftin' alone doin' time, running on call 
I know about losing, cause 
I've lost all 
I've had, and 
I did my best to make folks think that 
I was really worse than bad 
Being tattoed as trouble helped me out in 
New Orleans but the price 
I had to pay for that was love and misery. 
On the run driftin' alone 
Like a dog without a home 
On the run, driftin' alone 
Doin' time, running on call 
Doin' time, driftin' alone 
Doin' time, running on call
