welfare line - the highwaymen lyrics
[nelson]
well, now boys, i’ve been to bethlehem
rode there on a big steam train
lost two fingers in the steel mills
and i ain’t goin’ back again
[cash]
i fought for my country
lord knows, i did my best
crawlin’ ‘cross some foreign field
they pinned a ribbon to my chest
[all]
so, p-ss around the bottle, boys, let’s talk about old times
like rollin’ in this bowl of sin, here on the welfare line
[nelson]
served on the georgia road gang
couldn’t pay the debts i owe
’cause i’m not made of silver
and i ain’t never seen no gold
[cash]
i still remember rachael
soft as a velvet gown
they laid her in the pauper’s grave
on the other side of town
[all]
so, p-ss around the bottle, boys, let’s talk about old times
like rollin’ in this bowl of sin, here on the welfare line
[jennings]
i know some folks are born of money
you know i wish them well
if the devil would ever want my soul
i swear i’d never sell
[all]
so, p-ss around the bottle, boys, let’s talk about old times
like rollin’ in this bowl of sin, here on the welfare line
p-ss around the bottle, boys, let’s talk about old times
like rollin’ in this bowl of sin, here on the welfare line
