[Em] [B] [E]
I'm a thief, I pick, I've been locked [A] inside of hell, and I'm a-doin' [E] swear, yeah, oh,
but Lordy, [B] Lordy knows I'm a-crying [E] with hell.
Where I sleep, I don't care, I can smoke, I can swear, I can drink, and it rounded [A] to its knees.
Another [E] whiskey, please, it is, shoot a ten [B]-dollar piece at a thousand [E] feet.

[G] [E]
When I make my way back, feel my miles down the tracks, on the land,
and I'm drinking a nine-streets [A] pile of tea, a little [Em] [E] bumblebee tea.
Oh, she's sweet [Eb] like the honey, but she's sure a [E] good thing.
Through the rain and the storm, I'm full, I tell the Lord, but I'm full of silver [Em] in
[A] my jeans, and [E] a couple of strings, like a throwing dice [B] down a New [E] Orleans.
It's so
[A] hard.
[E]
I got drunk, I got loud, I got kicked out of town, she said, we don't want your [A] kind
around here, so we'll [Em] make that [E] clear, so I went to [G] speak with [B] the [E] engineer.
I'm indeed a train taking back where I came, make it long, make it fast and [A] let it roll,
let [E] the whistle blow, so every hard-weather tramp [B] knows [E] when to go.
