I never saw a town where I threw them raises down
Didn't know the lonesome sound of a midnight train
The kind that calls my name, I was born to play the game
Even if it's all in vain, call me what you want
I'm bound to tell the truth the way that gambler's rarely do
They be tying up your noose and calling you "friend"
If it was up to me, like the bluebird you'd be free
Oh, this life ain't what it seems if you catch my drift
Rich men pretend to be poor, poor folks only want a little bit more
What they never had before and it's a crying shame
My daddy worked the land and Mama raised me with her hands
We all do the best we can with the cards we're dealt
I ain't one to beg or plead but I could sure use some relief
Those who label me a thief for standing up tall
And there's a woman on my mind, for I her I'd gladly give my life
And the little girl by her side that wears my name
A one trick pony knows that it's all about the show
Life is but a rodeo and you can write that down
I best be moving on, you turn your head and I'll be gone
In this world I won't be long just like you
