Lyrics:

Oh well I've been to Texas,
I've been to Baton Rouge
And I've driven out past Little Rock
'cause darling I've got nothing left to prove

I've been poor enough
to have to spend
that last dollar
I keep inside my shoe

Go on now lead the life
you're gonna live sweetheart
I'll lead the life I choose
What else I gonna do?

I got good folk in Missouri
I got good friends in Tennessee
And Miss Rhonda out in Kansas
she always take good care of me

Sweet Louisiana,
where the whiskey's always free
Wherever it is we're rolling darlin'
that's where, where I'm gonna be

I got a friend in California
She says she's gonna be a star
She hooked up with some producer
I hear he drives a fancy car

All those empty promises
All they ever gonna do
is break your heart

Go on, headline the Filmore mama
I'll keep playing these dive bars ...
over and over again
