Lyrics

Die Alone

[Verse 1]

I lost one too many bets

Stayed up smokin' cigarettes

All tuned up on bottom shelf relief

Whiskey waltzing 'round the room

Hopeful just to get back soon

Spirits gently lay me down to sleep

No one cares to hear a man

So damn drunk that he can't stand

Cryin' bout the things that he can't change

[Pre-Chorus]

Diesel engine mausoleum

Friends are here but I don't see 'em

Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain

[Chorus]

If I'm goin', I’m goin' out my own way

Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again

When the bus gets back to Greenville

I'll already bе back home

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

[Verse 3]

Crossеd every line but saved a few

So I could have some more to do

To keep me from ever really comin' down

So highway carry me away

I got bills I've got to pay

I swear I'll give my all to this next town

Could I die on stage tonight

Just to be in your spotlight

You could see me let the whiskey drown

[Pre-Chorus]

Diesel engine mausoleum

Friends are here but I don't see 'em

Pray for mercy, deliver me from pain

[Chorus]

If I'm goin', I’m goin' out my own way

Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again

When the bus gets back to Greenville

I'll already be back home

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

If I'm goin', I’m goin' out my own way

Singin' songs and ridin' this old highway once again

When the bus gets back to Greenville

I'll already be back home

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone

I don't mind dyin', but don't wanna die alone
