Lyrics
I've been gone.
But, I've come back.
Stored my soul
On a rifle rack.
Now, here it is
In a paper sack
I'm never gonna live that way again.
I've been through Hell
At a woman's hand
'Till Hell don't feel
Like a foreign land.
I may be lost.
But, here I stand.
I'm never gonna live that way again.
I've been in love,
And I've been married.
I've walked alone,
and I've been carried.
So look out, world.
I'm back again,
Hellfire and booze,
My kith and kin.
I'll never be
The way I've been.
I'm never gonna live that way again.
She thinks I'm beat.
She's bound to lose.
"Defeat" is a word
I never use.
So look out, world!
I'm back again,
Hellfire and booze,
My kith and kin.
I'll never be
The way I've been.
I'm never gonna live that way again.
