Lyrics

He lives down by the river In an ol' run down shack Spends his life day by day Just tryin' to back To when he was a young man And everything was fine Gotta keep movin' on Just to catch up with the times I seen him layin' on the railroad tracks without a penny to his name And it seems that lately Lord, things just ain't the same Not a care in this world nobody else to blame But you know that whiskey Lord It just keeps rollin' through his veins Livin' life all alone No place to call home If he's gone tomorrow Hell, no one would ever know Said he had a family Oh before they moved him on But somehow they all disappeared Before they called him home Lord ain't it funny how they can rob a man so blind Take everything he had, he can barely stay alive Doin' the best he can before he goes insane But you know that whiskey Lord It just keeps rollin' through his veins Yeah, yeah, yeah Lord ain't it funny how they can rob a man so blind Take everything he had, he can barely stay alive Doin' the best he can before he goes insane But you know that whiskey Lord It just keeps rollin' through his veins Man you've got to keep on keepin' on On and on and on
